oil pressure port???
Is this an oil pressure port back near the dizzy? I swear there was a plug in there before I sent this off to the machine shop.

I guess if you are running a mechanical gauge. My 1991 has the sending unit above the oil filter, so I guess this just gets plugged up.

The size is 1/8" NPT. You can get brass plugs in that size in the plumbing dept of any hardware store. Or even, home improvement stores.
