- 97 Mountaineer V8 4x4
After reading the thread on the Oil Guage Mod, I decided to do it on my 97 Mountaineer with V8.
I think i have located the oil pressure switch (sender) on the engine, but can anyone confirm its location?
Also, what is the best way to get to it? It appears to be in a really tight spot.
What senders will work for the V8? I took the advice on the othert thread and purchased a sender for an 84 F150 with I6, but the sender looks HUGE and the Neihoff part # is different. The sender Autozone gave me:
Niehoff: #FF135C, OP24771
The inlet is 1/2" NPT, and the sender overall is 3 1/2" long and 2" in diamter.
Any advice would be great. Esp how to get to the sender on the 5.0 Block
Thanks,
Aaron
