Ken, you have mail!!

Going to try and insert pictures so everyone can see.




The large sender with 1 terminal in the oil pressure sender, the smaller one with two terminals is the oil pressure switch. This should be the proper orientation.

Mash 577 a thousand thanks for the Pics !!!!! Looks like a last minute engineering fix! We now know what we are going after.

After spending more time looking around in detail under the hood and checking my records I realized that 9 years and 15k miles have past since any real work has been done on the motor.

The $10 dollar part will now become the following project.

Replacement of - Plugs, Wires, Rotor, Cap, Wire clips, Valve cover gasket, oil sending unit and pressure switch. While we are at it a fresh coat of paint for the valve covers.

If I have to dive in might as well go all the way. If there is anything else I should consider while I'm that far in let us know.

Thanks all again for the help.
