    Extra part on oil pres switch...?

    yeah seijirou, probably....we've all seen them so that's probably it. I also recall the extra wire being doubled up back against it with one of those old-school looking zip ties with big square holes rather than the typical type. and DucatiRdr, thanks! That's extremely helpful... I'll...

    Extra part on oil pres switch...?

    I'm talking right on the sender... My autometer sender had nothing extra, but the last stock sender I saw has an extra piece. This peice had the end that pushes onto the threaded rod on the sender itself, then a short wire going into a large rubber encasement (about the size of a bic lighter)...

    Extra part on oil pres switch...?

    When I swapped my car's 4 cyl for the 5.0, I added a autometer oil pressure gauge and sending unit. Now I'm pulling it out and going back to the stock gauge. I bought the oil pressure switch from Autozone but I think I'm missing something. My brother recently did the same thing... he robbed...

    69 psi key on, engine off fuel pressure?!?

    I gotcha. It's just a digital Autometer. I actually rechecked it and it was more like 60 psi. But anyway, I took it out on the highway, and after about 5 minutes of 65 mph, it was up at 2-3 (of about 8) into RICH. So I dropped it down to about 58 and I'm gonna test that out and get it...

    What upgrades from an '87 Turbo Coupe

    I used Lincoln Mark VII rear axels and brakes in my 88 Turbo coupe. It widened my rear track 1" PRE SIDE. This was a killer 5-lug/brake upgrade (11.65" rear disc) but I'm guessing this would be too wide to use on my 68 GT with late model wheels (different offset from factory wheels)...?
