Re: Oil sender?

["jtrealtywebspannet" <jtrealty@xxxx>]

You CAN reseal your sender switch. Remove it from the motor, 
disassemble, clean, (with alcohol) and reassemble using silicone 
sealer as you go. A little goes a long way so use sparingly. It seems 
that they mostly leak from the stem, not where they screw into the 
motor but a SMALL dab will prevent any leaks when you reinstall. Again 
inspect the wire where it comes down alongside the motor, the heat 
makes it crispy (brittle). You can also test the light by grounding 
the wire, when you touch it to ground the oil light should illuminate. 
It should also light up as you turn the key and before you start the 
motor as there is no oil pressure at that point.
