Source for oil temp sender-K64286

I am not finding this # when I search Google, etc...? I am concerned about ohms matching with my AutoMeter gauges. I have twin bbcs and one quit registering oil temp.

I'd reach out to autometer - they probably can cross reference it for you.

ALso, this might help narrow down compatibility.

Also, no thread sealers on those. It'll mess with grounding of the sensor.

LOL!!!! That might be why my new oil temp gauges do not work!!! I have my sending units installed in the line at the stock remote oil filter block from the engine block adapter. I can post a pic if needed. I used sealant at each end of the line too so even if I didn't use the sealant on the sending unit itself, the path to ground still has sealant to pass through. FYI, I ran each engine on the hose (I'm in Michigan and the ground water is still pretty cold) for maybe 5 - 10 minutes. The oil lines felt pretty warm but I don't know if the oil reached the minimum of 140 degrees to show up on the gauge.
