Correct oil pressure switch 318?

[TIB3300]

Morning

My engine doesnt seem to have a oil pressure switch, so I need to get one.

I have found a few but there seems to be a variant in pressure/ bar. Can Anyone tell me or point me in the right direction of a correct oil pressure switch for a 318 thanks

I would go with one that switches off at a pressure you are happy with, it is only a warning light on or off. I've had lights on some cars that Bananarama! at tick over as the pressure gets lower.
What ratings are they stating that you have found?

[TIB3300]

yes I was going for the switch/ ie light type. I think they varied between 0.5 and 2 bar.

Do pou know what the numbers mean?

PS10
PS11
PS12 Am thinking PSi /bar?

Why not just fit a mechanical oil pressure gauge? No sender required and it will be accurate.

Exactly, senders don't really tell you anything, pressure gauge is real world data

Thanks guys, will stick to a light for the moment. Never realy liked oil gauges, spend all your time watchng it on hot days at the lights
