Bentley and Etka is wrong. Unless you like the sound of the oil buzzer,
you want the grey switch, .9bar. The white switch is 1.8 bar, (25.4 psi).
You will not reliably have 25 psi at 2,500 rpm so the buzzer will be
tested with the white switch.

Had a shop look at my 91GL after re-checking oil cooler seal, etc for
leaks.
Concensus is the oil pressure switch near the water pump.  Bentley says
the
white switch.  Any suggestions on easiest way to fix?  Would like to have
new fuel lines and any hoses clamps for the water pump at hand. Due to
space
and prev age of hoses, should probably do a couple of things at the same
time. Gonna check archives from Frank, Ken, Ben, etc and order on Monday
but
need quick shipping or I'm gonna miss the end of summer fishing at the
Gulf
Coast. Any advice is appreciated.
