So I bought an autometer triple gauge pillar pod for my 99 5.4 along with water and trans temp gauges and a oil pressure gauge

I need some help with the oil pressure sensor I found out where to put it but I need to get a t fitting so I can run both the new sensor and the factory one does anyone know what fitting I need links would be great thanks

I removed the factory sensors(drain oil first of course) and brought the stock sensor and AutoMeter sensors with me to the hardware store. Bought a brass T and the fittings to attach everything together.

I just changed the oil with full synthetic boo lol good idea though were the autometer sensor and the factory one the same size

It's been 10yrs since I installed mine and the truck is long gone.

IIRC the OEM sensors screwed directly into the T, the AutoMeter sensor used one of the adapters supplied with the gauge. So again if I can remember correct all you will need is a T and a nipple to attach the T to the block.
