Mounting MAP sensor

[peastham]

Hi,
What is the proper hardware to mount the MAP sensor? It has two holes that taper such that a 1/4" bolt will self-tap into them, but for only a small region of the hole...not sure how secure this is. Also, the back side of the sensor does not provide a good surface for a washer/nut.

Thanks - Paul

There isn't really any specific hardware which we recommend.

If there are any customers that have any specific recommendations from their own experience, please post them here.

If you're mounting the sensor with the flat side against your mounting surface, you might consider bolts that go straight through both the sensor and the surface the sensor's attached to. In this scenario you would use washers on the connector/nipple side of the sensor, between the head of the bolt and the sensor housing. Hopefully you can generate a visual image from this description

For others: I ended up mounting it with AN3 bolts. Works fine and seems secure.
