Abstract

See full text

A compression sensor gasket assembly includes a gasket body and a pressure sensor assembly having a sensor tip and an externally threaded portion. The gasket body has opposite sides extending between an opening configured to register with a cylinder bore of an internal combustion engine and an outer periphery. A notch extends into the outer periphery to a recessed surface. A sensor receptacle configured for at least partial receipt of the pressure sensor assembly extends from the recessed surface to the opening. A nut is disposed in the notch with internal threads of the nut being aligned for threaded engagement with the externally threaded portion of the pressure sensor assembly. The nut has bifurcated fingers extending laterally outwardly from an outer surface. The bifurcated fingers have inner surfaces bonded to at least one of the opposite sides of the gasket body to facilitate proper orientation of the pressure sensor assembly.
