Subject:      a delayed thanks

I want to thank the several people who have been helping me while the list was down. I got the engine (rebuilt) back into the van and it wouldn't start because there was no spark. After trying everything for days, and a lot of help, my wife got back from a family reunion, studied the wiring diagrams for a while, and discovered that the wire I had going to the oil sensor really went to ground. Started right up.

However, the oil light still doesn't work. I found the wire that really goes to the sensor. If I hook it up, nothing. If I ground it, the light comes right on. The sensor is new. Do I need a different new one? How do I test it?

Thanks, Bill (Bill@freeholder.com) ---------------------------------------------------------- 90% of life is just showing up. HTTP://www.freeholder.com
