Note to self ....check routing of oil pressure pipe

Dont want the wiper mech to cut through the pipe next time i am out in the rain in the escort

would be a first Gaz.

[graham John]

For now just screw a standard type oil pressure switch in block - couple of quid from motor spares shop.

Escort tec do a new pipe for pintos not aeroquip though

Threads/couplings are odd sizes though so be carefull if ordering from Pirtek etc

visit to pirtek today was a success to some degree, however as Custom points out, the threads / couplings are a really odd size and they had nothing that would fit / adapt to the block or(more importantly) the dash.

we managed to get a "rubber" (Nylon reinforced or similar) on to the existing couplings, however the 'tails' of the existing coupling are very short.

will post a pic up soon

rs2000 holds 3.75 ltrs of oil ................... GJ's now tops 4.25 ltrs with that high capacity hose fitted

Hope his oil pressure gauge reads low enough as the extra hose bore size will cause a drop of pressure measured at the oil pressure gauge
