Default rst crank sensor

im in the middle of doing a efi conversion to a s2 turbo engine and came accro the problem of the crank sensor, there is a hole in the block where the sensor should be but its alot bigger that the sensor. is there some sort of bush or washer that you can buy to make the hole smaller if not can you by-pass the sensor

cheers

if it's relevant, bear in mind that the adaptor bolts onto the crankcase flange from the gearbox side, so you have to fit it while the engine is separated from the gearbox

Nothing happens. And I mean nothing. It will never make a spark.

yeah was gonna try the breakers at the weekend but its just the fact of having to take of the gearbox and fly wheel just to get a little washer but that looks like the only option
