Oil pressure safety switch

Post by Scrane25 »

OK... bit of a neophyte here: I've installed an electric fuel pump in my '53 M37, and am now ready to install the oil pressure safety switch. To which side of the ignition switch does it attach, and where does the starter wire hook up? I'm using the original starter. Also, any input on installing a priming override button/switch would be welcome.

Thanks much for any assistance!

I have a diagram how I did mine less an over ride switch. Are you going to use a relay?

I'd not thought of using a relay... How/where did you install it?

You can mount relay on the firewall. Shoot me a p/m with your email and I can scan over my diagram.

thanks
