Oil pressure
« on: 22 October 2011, 10:03 »
Guys where are my oil pressure sensors?
I unplugged the two on my oil filter housing and get no alarm.
Is there a third?

Worried as I have a leak from my oil cooler I need to fix.

I think you will find another on the side of the head.

Ah ok I will have a look, I assume all 3 need to be low for the light to come on...

Right hand side as your looking at it on 8v. Under a rubber sleeve.  :smiley:
