Hey Folks,

I've a GSI loom and clocks in my C20LET Nova. The oil pressure switch on my oil pump accepts the plug from the Blue and Green wire, however it doesnt accept the little pin plug on the Blue and Yellow wire.

The blue and green switches off the oil light on the dash if i'm correct. And the blue and yellow show's the actual pressure.

What oil pressure switch do I need, doe's anyone have the part number so I can order this on monday morning? I want to have accurate oil pressure before I start the engine.

Thanks

Keith

You wont get any pressure on the gauge before starting the engine.
Well,i dont when cranking mine.
Just wait for the oil light to go out.

Does the current sender on your engine have any other terminals on it?

Nope, its the type that accepts the plug.

Astra Gte
Nova GSi
Nova Gte
Early Nova 1.3sr

Look at those on EPC as they had the 2pin type fitted.
IIRC there pretty expensive new, but you're not going to let something silly like cost get in your way are you? ;) lol
