February 17, 201511 yr comment_694251 Hey just wondering what this plug is for(bottom left of photo) and can I delete it? Cheers Report
February 17, 201511 yr comment_694252 wtf - never seen that before. neither of my 5k's had that on the sump. Maybe an oil level sensor but looks too low. wont need it in the KE38. Report
February 17, 201511 yr Author comment_694253 Cool, yeah its an import engine so maybe something that was only on jap models? Report
February 17, 201511 yr comment_694258 Looks like an oil level sensor... See if it earths out while its empty then hook up a dash light to it! Report
February 17, 201511 yr comment_694259 yeah I reckon make use of it you can, handy light to have. The early rx7s have a coolant level switch in the radiator that I always wanted to adapt to my cars. Report
February 17, 201511 yr comment_694261 I remember a thread about these a few years ago, you could probably find it with a search. IIRC its oil temp sensor not level. Report
February 17, 201511 yr comment_694262 Yes it's a oil level sensor, you have a van engine, most of the liteaces had them. Turns the oil level light on when the oil level gets to low on the dip stick. Report
February 17, 201511 yr comment_694283 I picked a 5K engine up in Gympie last week, pulled to bits, that has the oil level sensor/switch built into the sump. I'd never seen, or had one on either of the 2 off 5K engines I've already got. I pulled it off as soon as I got the engine home, as I was intersted to see how it worked. I've got a couple of spare warning light spots on the RHS of my KE30 dash I can hook it up to. Cheers Banjo. Edited February 17, 201511 yr by Banjo Report
