Oil Temperature sender

[onlybayinthevillage]

Can anyone help?
I have purchased a VDO Oil Temperature Sender Sump Blade Terminal Connection from JK and want to know where to fit it. Not where i thought as the hole in the centre of the strainer does not seem big enough to take the thread. Am i being thick again (new to all this!)
Thanks
rob

Its head temperature that more important, I will tell you if the engine is cooking, oil temp fluctuates too much IMO
