Oil Pressure Sending Unit

I installed my Auto Meter Oil Pressure gauge last night... it works fine. However, my stock one was all stripped like bad missing half the threads from the factory. Do you think Honda will replace it?

It probably wasn't stripped... it doesn't have too many threads on it, and they're covered in layers of sealant to keep the oil from leaking out. They're probably not going to replace it because you pulled it out for no good reason (according to Honda, there would have been nothing wrong if you left it in there). Put some teflon paste on it and screw it into your T fitting.

Really... I should take it back out and snap a picture - I would now but its a @!#%!. Anyways.. there are about two threads and nothing then about two more. Its really bad, and its still leaked before i messed with it just not to much... and all I did was add a spiltter so I could use both sending units.
