Arrow Nube Question, oil pressure sensor on block or in pan?

Hai Gais,

Im pretty sure the oil pressure sensor is the one next to the pedestal. But what the ufck is the one in the pan with the wire dangling from under the motor?

And I don't have a wire connected to the one by the pedestal, don't even know what kind of connector one would use.

Anyone have a pic.

Thanks Rotards-

The sensor on the pan is for the "Low Oil" light in the warning cluster.

You can use a (slightly) tweaked female spade connector on the oil pressure sending unit's "mushroom" connector.

the Oil Pressure Sensor is under the oil filter pedistal on the rear iron, it almost looks like a wastegate, or a big acorn, thats been mounted horizontally on the rear iron. The plug for it is rectangular and slides over a small circular nipple on the end of the sensor pointing towards the drivers side of the car.

The second elec line with a plug, IIRC hooks up to a connection in your drivers side harness that tells the idiot cluster if your oil is low/or overheating?

I honestly can't remember if thats right, but someone else prolly does. I don't even use it anymore on my car which is why i don't remember.
