69177, Oil pressure switch problem .... Posted by eclipse982nrRST, Apr-16-04 07:14 AM
My oil pressure switch threads into the adapter from the star kit, but it does not go in completely ... there is still like half of the threads left and i know it isnt bottoming out into the adapter ...is this okay?

Generally, the cooler everything is, the longer it lasts, and the faster you go.
