As above, myne is tapped into the back of the oil pump, i thought it was well out of the way, but it seems the drive shaft may have touched it?:eek:

Odd as it seems to have over an inch of clearance!

Jacked it up like this, rear wheel was off the floor and still had clearance

1" wont be enough clearence when you consider going round a right hander at 60... suspension travel is quite a bit...

There are 2 or 3 options... I run my temp sensor out of the other grub screw near there (cant remember exactly where!)
