Gary,
Good point on the vibration. I replaced the oil pressure switch and no oil leaked out of the port. The replacement (Yanmar #124060-39452) switch is a little smaller than the original. I’m still thinking about adding a pressure sending unit and weighing the risk of tee failure. Here’s one tee that I found: http://www.ebay.com/itm/1-8-BSPT-Oil-Pressure-Sensor-Tee-to-NPT-Adapter-Turbo-Lexus-Toyota-Subaru-Mazda-/351867602261 Ron Ron Ricci S/V Patriot C&C 37+ Bristol, RI From: CnC-List [mailto:cnc-list-boun...@cnc-list.com] On Behalf Of Gary Russell via CnC-List Sent: Friday, November 4, 2016 9:43 PM To: C&C List Cc: Gary Russell Subject: Re: Stus-List Oil Pressure Switch I am concerned about connecting a gauge directly to the engine for fear that the vibration could cause a catastrophic failure of the gauge or connection and a loss of oil pressure.
