Hey guys,
I agree with all who are reluctant to hang a
switch & gauge off an engine mounted tee.
I have an adaptor to female NPT on my Kubota oil
pressure port. There is a (4) NPT thread drilled
aluminum block which has input, switch & gauge
connections, leaving 1 spare port (plugged)
firmly mounted on the engine. A rubber hose,
typical of a grease gun whip, connects the two to eliminate vibration issues.
check message #3 for good thread and adaptor source info:

As I recall the proper tee doesn't exist. It
would be simple enough for a machinist to
manufacture though. That was my plan. Once you
get it to 1/8" NPT you can do anything with it.
