Oil pressure switch alternatives?

dunlop0_1 · 29-Oct-2011, 18:08

Popped the oil pressure switch on the 996 in the last session at Oulton today.

Using the search tab I found that the Vauxhall Agila 1.1 is possibly a straight swop?

Is this correct cos they are only £3.50 on I'mgay.

Com'on Mr Ellis.

Good chance I also think one off a VW golf fits.

Yeah no worries Paul I even managed to weld the leaking one.
Trying to catch my mate on his 170BHP Blade was fun (didn't manage it though) . LOL.
Had the same thing happen on the DD bike this year just glad it happened in the last session, and it started to rain.

You'll be ok with the Agila ones, I've got one in my 748.I think there's a very slight discrepency on the operating pressure range of the Agila one compared to the OEM jobby,but in all honesty as long as it indicates pressure it's doing it's job.Buy two,keep one for next time.
