Oil Pressure Gauge Switch / Sensor Empty
PostSubject: Oil Pressure Gauge Switch / Sensor   Oil Pressure Gauge Switch / Sensor EmptyWed Dec 27, 2017 8:21 am

Mine is leaking oil so i was going to rockauto to order another one, but I see several different part numbers from the same company, all different prices, but all for a 3800. Anybody know which one is "best".

FWIW I do have an L32 but i think the plate is bolts to is part of the filter housing so it would have come off my L67.

Was able to answer part of my own question, the 05 GTP (L32) type sensor is 2 terminal, the rivs have 4 terminal connectors. SO PS279 will not work with a riv.

Also going to take a guess that since the riv has a dash light and not a dash gauge for oil pressure I should be going with the PS270 sensor.
