do these come in different sizes or does one size fit all? In other words do I have to look for a Mini Specific one or can I pick up one anywhere?

Different sizes to suit different sized holes.

Thread sizes and types are not my strong point but I have bought a couple of the counter in downtown Mudgee at the local Auto-One. Which means that in a town that has a population greater than 11,000 you shouldn't have a problem.

Take you current oil sender unit with you. They are readily available.

Threads are almost my favourite subject...
The thread in the block is 1/8 BSP, all you need is a 1/8 BSP nipple and a 1/8 BSP tee piece.
Put the nipple in the end and screw it into the block.
Then screw the pressure switch in the other end of the tee and the oil pipe fitting in the side.
Don't use thread tape, a drop of Loctite 242 or similar is all you need.

I got one from Minisport in Adelaide. It is basically a bit of hex bar stock drilled and threaded to make it a T-piece. I got it because the old one I had was square and interfered with the oil hose to the filter. It is not a problem if I had a banjo fitting with the pipe to the filter. Wish i could find a picture, but their wesite does not seem to have them any more.

Kind of makes you proud to be an AUSSIE

I've ordered one from MiniSpares in the UK - $10 with postage
