Is it a switch or a sensor? If it's a switch (which I suspect) you should be able to short that too.


As for the oil level [switch], yes you can bypass/short it.

It is a sensor suposidly,when it goes out car will not idle ,will not take gass and acts like several cylinders are not firing ,it will also effect the fuel pressure regulator , will find out if it fixes tomorrow .
I just plugged the oil fill sensor in and that shut off limp mode ,i have it zip tied to the tranny lines now but if i can simply jump it i will

Yeah , the new sensor did the trick and the code cleared ,now ....i get code P2198 ! 02 sensor stuck ritch ,bank 2 sensor 1 ,and surprise surprise bank 1 and sensor one . I am thinking this is not the o2 sensors but something else triggering the 02 sensor code

I have it striped down ,body work done and ready for primer first thing in the morning . It will set a couple of days and then a good block sanding and then paint ,in the original torch red .
I spent the morning polishing up the American racing wheels ,they cleaned up very nice . The last pic is what i am shooting for.

I started at 6 this morning ,its now just passed 11 . All three coats of clear are on ,it sets up fast ! The last coat i really took my time and laid it on ,no runs ,a couple of light specs of dust but that will color sand out and it should easily buff nice and smooth ,i am happy with it !
