Finally put the Racing Beat adaptor block in today so my mechanical gauge is working, this thing isnt AS easy as you would think it to be, actually, I should correct myself and say that if you dont have a decent stubby 10mm wrench, I cant see how you COULD get this thing on and off. Luckily for me I had a stubby and a long 10mm GearWrench, god answered prayers when he sent these GearWrenches down to earth! Im pretty sure the old O-rings was the culprit of my oil leak as evident by the mess of oil that had been coming from it, so I killed 2 birds with one stone anyhow.

 

ya those o-rings cause leaks all the time and need to be replaced.



I added that block a few weeks ago and as soon as I started the car you could see oil dripping out.. so I pulled the block off and noticed the RB o-rings that came with it are thinner then the stock ones. #*&@!. so I picked up 4 new mazda ones that are thicker and installed it again and it was fine. I'm surprised they haven't had problems in the past with their rings...

 

If you're worried about future o-ring failures then try putting some silicone on both surfaces. I did that on a car without any o-rings, and it doesn't leak.
