Subject:      Cleaning contacts/Oil light buzzer
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1


After the coments recently about cleaning up corroded connectors, yesterday I did.  Esp. the shielded not sealed ones that I havn't checked.  Some were really bad, tried to clean some and replaced a few connectors.  BTW whats a good replacement for better spade connectors, maybe ones that would be more sealed up?


  The two wire connector for the oil pressure switches was in poor condition, cleaned it up some, but really want to replace.  Tonight when driving the pressure light and buzzer came on.  Was my oil pressure always low and now that the contacts are cleaner is telling me so or what's up?  Should I worry and find a way to test it?  If so what would be the easiest way?


  Thanks
