Re: Dim oil pressure warning light

Hi Tim:

It sounds strange, but if you use a higher wattage bulb for oil pressure,
it's brightness will actually go down, so try to get the exact replacements
for both brake and oil bulbs. Another option may be to increase the wattage
proportionaly on both bulbs at the same time (haven't tried this). This
setup is similar to most cars of the era. Also similar, the oil switch
comes on around 6psi which is basically post-mortum at highway speeds. I
use a chevy v8 pressure switch rated at 24psi which screws right in, with
the white/brown wire connected to the only terminal. A dual diaphram
distributer (like mine) requires t fitting both switches, though.
