Well, it's finally warm enough to begin work on the 3, so that can only mean the start of problems and questions. Nisonger rebuilt the oil gauge, and I got a new sender pipe from Moss, so I figured installation would be easy. Unfortunately, the pipe screws on about 1/2 way, then binds. The threads on both gauge and pipe look fine, and I have no trouble running a tap onto the gauge. Any ideas? Thanks.

Gauge should have male threads, so I assume you mean a die rather than a tap ... what size fits ? If memory serves, the original threads are oddball, like BSP or something like that.
Also, I assume you are aware that there is supposed to be a leather gasket in the joint.
