OK - I tried to change the oil pressure switch - hoping this would rid me of my oil leak problem, and while installing the new one, I dropped/lost in in the tin (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif)
While looking inside, where the switch goes, I could see the oil, and it looked as if it was being syphoned - you know like gulp, gulp - and the gulps were in sync with the drips coming from up underneath the car. So - I have two problems / questions: 1. Do you think a magnent will pull the switch out? Its not visible (IMG:style_emoticons/default/splat.gif) and if not - is it difficult to remove the tin? If not, how do I go about it? I took out the flat head screws, but the tin didnt move. 2. If it is not the switch - (it looks like its coming from the cooler - I hope not - but if it is, can anyone guide me through removing the cooler without dropping the engine? - And is there anything else I should check before I assume its the cooler? Thanks - ALL help is appreciated |
