Does it have a 2 wire or 3 wire switch?

Goto summitracing.com, they have cheaper ones. It doesnt matter if it has 2 or 3 prongs, it will work as a switch. The 3 prong just has a normally closed circut I guess to run a warning light.

 

wrong thread.........


I just wanted to make sure. Book wiring only shows two wires running to it but ya never know.

 

My 86 only has 2 wires.

 

Just wanted to make sure, latley I have bought n bought all kinds of new parts and fixed nothing.

Thought it was flaky wiring, then the pump, still not kicking pump on, but new pump sounds healthier. fuel pump relay never worked for life of my ownership[7+yrs], only the 7psi oil switch. threw a low voltage FP code for life also, but always ran fine. I don't plan to fix the FP relay. I like it that way so ya got oil PSI first, then start. though now its not working, when oil PSI builds nutin honey.

though during all this I installed a back up manual FP switch but.....
I like the safety of the oil switch on boths end of the stick.
On start up and accidents.

got the 2 prong $13.50 shipped one on Ebay

 

Very easy:

2 wires: for oil pressure LIGHT in dash

3 wires: for oil pressure GAUGE in dash.


Buy the right part for your car's needs,
