2 dumb questions:
1) where is the oil pressure sensor located? My light is on but gauge says pressure is fine. Standing at the back of the car is it left side or right? From up top or down below?
2) what is this wire for? I can't see anywhere for it to go. Is it related to 1) above?
Thanks in advance,

Hi Bruce.
So first, the easy one. Your oil pressure sensor is that little can with the wire on it (in your picture) just behind your thermostat.
Second, are you sure you're looking @ a low oil pressure light? Often the parking brake light, or alternator light can be mistaken for an oil pressure light.

FYI.
Info on the oil gauge.
Ummm thanks. To quote Gilda Radner .... never mind....:oQuote:

Despite how sensible the gauges are in our cars, the brake system light has always seemed odd to me. It's sitting on the oil gauge right above the oil temp symbol..... certainly seems like it should have something to do with oil eh? :confused:
What year car are we looking at, 65-67 ? The yellow wire snaking around the oil breather is not original nor is the black wire in your hand, that is not a European connector on the end. From where does the wire originate?Quote:

I think it must have been part of the dealer installed AC. Car runs fine and all electrical is working, so I guess I'm not going to worry about it. Thanks
