On Thu, 08 Jun 2000, Peter Cassidy laid this bit of wit and wisdom upon us:

Actually, the low pressure switch is really easy to get to.  You just need to
take off the port side engine tin and it's between the pushrod tubes for #3 and
#4 cylinders.  A 23mm (if memory serves) deep-well socket will take it out.
