 Oil Pressure Switch
Anyone install a oil pressure switch on a 36 PD?
If so do you have a part number?

 Re: Oil Pressure Switch
No, thinking of a pressure switch to run the electric fuel pump. No pressure, no fuel, no flooding!
But a guage may not be a bad idea either. Just don't want to get to far out as things seem to get knocked off pretty easy.

 Re: Oil Pressure Switch
get rid of the fuel pump. switch to the vacume fuel pump that is on the 23brigs. it mounts on the headcover and has a brushguard.
i had problems with the origional 36 cam driven fuel pump vaporlocking just like most people. i switched to the vacume fuel pump and have had no more problems. i hate electric fuel pumps, too much to worry about.
and i run 25' of fuelline.
been working for over 600hrs on this motor.
call pd and ask about it, it may be a option for u.
