And this morning's "help the feeble" is ....


Oil leak. Considerable. look underneath, coming down the left hand side of the block as you look at the van.
This morning I have removed the push rod cover from this side....its wet with oil around the oil pressure sensor. So hoping this not pushrod tube seals!

Switch not been operating right for a while...will glow dimly if damp, and if water from puddle gets in there....well, it glows brightly!

so....going to change the little devil. But I am confused as to which one I need and how to do it.

Although its a 2.1, its only running the 1.9 electrics, so no second sensor wiring.

Think is the LOW pressure one I need....can anyone state the bar for me, please? last time I went in for one, I was offered Blue, grey or black!

Also - changing....access looks like fun....socket or spanner?

Does it have a rubber o ring that I will have to find the bits of (if present one has disintegrated?)

Surely not a screw out screw in 5 min job.....

thanks in advance

Blue switch from Brickwerks 0.25 bar
long nose socket
there should be a copper sealing ring

5 min job

I'll hold you to that, Kev!!

Gotta find a 13mm long socket now!


Cheers.

Agree with Kev, the blue one, this is the one I recently changed too due to a small oil leak, and all is good now, and the oil light behaves aswell now too

I think the switch is 27mm socket

It's a 24mm deep socket you need, just checked on a spare blue sensor I had in the garage. Cheers Rich
