[T3] Ive got a Flikerer...


Er ererr.....

Just put the new Brazillian oil pressure switch in, and on the trip to PA
over the weekend I found my oil light flickering or ON after long hauls on
the Freeway.  In the past, Ive always found that both the OEM and
aftermarket senders wouldn't come on unless there way practically NO oil
pressure, but this one cuts in at about 5PSI, which is what they are
SUPPOSED to do, Brazillian?  WOW! Didn't think Id hear those two words in
the same sentence.

5PSI at hot idle in the summer is more than I could ask at 110K, so I guess
a flickering oil light really needs to be investigated more carefully, to
see exactly what pressure your sensor really works at.
