The oil pressure switch on my MK1 Kent engine is not working. It appears to be electrically operated. Can anyone tell me where to get a replacement.
I am new to the Capri and so far have not got a workshop manual. Can anyone tell me the best place to buy spares.

Re: Oil pressure switch
Hi,
Welcome to the forum.
For spares, I tend to use Caprigear, Capri Club International, Tickover and Burton Power.
There is a very useful thread with loads of other suppliers listed:

Re: Oil pressure switch
Hi Andrew. Yes I guess it is. And presumably is electrically operated? My car is a 1972 Kent engine GT so probably before the thread change. Thanks for your help.

Give Martin at Caprigear a call on 01507 343148. He should be able to supply the part and you can guarantee that it will be the correct one. It's best to stick with the specialists as you can't always tell what you'll be getting with Ebay sellers.Paul Domoney wrote:Hi Andrew. Yes I guess it is. And presumably is electrically operated?
