Hey all, After not having anything to post for a while, I discovered something today. The oil pressure switch on my '78 is leaking oil. The oil is leaking from the top of the switch body, not from the threads. There is a narrow cylinder with the push-on wire connection on top of the switch and then below that is the main switch body. The oil is leaking from the seam between the narrow cylinder and the switch body. So, I will naturally have to replace the switch. It looks like it will be a MAJOR pain to get that thing out. There is almost zero clearance between switch and tin to get a socket on it. Does anybody have an easy way to get this thing out and get a new one in? I like the location of the type I switch, right there where you can get to it. This one looks like it will be tricky. Any tips and tricks will be greatly appreciated, Sean
