Is it threaded? I can't tell form the picture. Either way a bolt nut and of course a washer. Some might say JBweld also but idk how good that will come off.

With the thickness of that, even if it was threaded I wouldn't expect it to hold up. If you're going to plug that you're likely going to need to weld a bung on it then plug it.

you could plug it with a grommet if you are gonna run maybe 3psi...

think about that.. grommet. not made to hold 18psi

just thread it and use an 1/8th inch pipe plug.. same thread/plug ud use for an egt gauge

Sent it to Buschur and have Trent weld a bung into it. Then you can plug it and when your ready remove the plug to go with meth. Brian H's answer is the only right way to do it.

If you have them weld in a bung you can always ues it later the other fixes are just band aids.
