Title: Question????????
Post by: cougar1car on October 27, 2005, 06:19:31 PM
Does anyone have any pics or know where exactlywhere the wire that comes out of the low oil pressure sensor in the oil pan for my 87cougar 3.8 i wasnt there when the old motor came out or when the new one went in. I believe the sensor is still in there but i can find no wire to hook it up?????

should be on driver side of the car somewere in that mess of wires,
I still have the 86 cougar with 3.8 in it sitting behind my parents.
I will go look at it tomorrow and take a few pics of the stuff and post up for you.

oil pressure sensor isnt in the pan, oil level sensor is
Title: Ground it

If you can, ground it out.  The sensor is no longer available from Ford, and if your fails, you'll hear that God ed beeping noise. If there's one thing I hate, it's that noise.
