Brent,
  Saw your message today and it reminded me that I hadn't heard from you after I sent a couple of photos of the septum I made and installed in front of my oil cooler.  Just wondering if you received that e-mail a couple of weeks ago and if so, if what I made looks satisfactory to you.  If you didn't get it, I'll re-send it to you.
  I have a VM-1000 and haven't had any sensor issues with it.  I'll save your message on the oil pressure sensor in the event that it ever goes tits up on me.
  Take care,
