You could drill and tap a ground screw into the adapter then use the Autometer one. Don't need much of a wire to ground it properly.
Otherwise, any combination of automotive or hardware store parts to get the right stand-off will work. I've used brass plumbers fittings before quite well.

You will need to know what the ohm range is for the sender. Wire up the pull up network with the appropriate resistor. Then feed in 1 liter (or 1/2 gallon - or so) at a time and take some data. If you know the sender's resistance range, you can approximate the amount with a linear extrapolation, but...

Speed is the 1st derivative of displacement. Acceleration is the 2nd derivative.

Differentiate displacement and you get speed.

When I initially installed a Dash2 and a DL1, the Dash 2 would freeze up periodically. I reduced the frequency and channels that went to the Dash2 and the problem cleared up. I believe there isn't any error checking in the data stream so any errors that show up will fritz out the Dash2. Try reducing...

Yes, 100 Ohm, but take care with how many sensors you drive off the internal power supply. You may want to add up the total amp draw if you are driving more than a few sensors. V = I*R or in the case of a pull up: V / R = I Opinion, but feeding a sensor into the DL1, will give you more control on ho...

I did a quick google search and there are lots of folks who have taken data on Bosch sensors. The trick is to find the right one. However, since they are resistance based sensors, hooking up a pull up network to the sensor will likely mess up the data the ECU and the R-T part receives. I'd suggest i...

1) add up the current draw from all your sensors and make sure you don't exceed the DL1's capability. To avoid potentially damaging the expensive DL1, I use a linear voltage regulator, a couple of caps and a prototype board for about $10 USD. 2) Wires - I purchased a spool of 3 conductor ~20 gauge, ...
