Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the engine uses an oil pressure gauge before ordering. Match the connector style, terminal count, and thread location to the original switch on the vehicle. Clean the connector before installation and inspect the harness for corrosion or looseness. Confirm proper sealing at the engine port after installation and test gauge operation once the engine is running.
