Gauge hook up
Can someone tell me where the oil pressure switch is on the 351M? I'm hooking up a triple gauge cluster tonight. Thanks guys!

Please don't pull out in front of me! The last thing I want to do is play identify the pieces with you or your car.

Put a tee there so you can keep your idiot light or factory gauge. On newer engines you almost have to use a tee because the computer monitors oil pressure and if the sender is disconnected you get a check engine light.

You may need a real short wrench to be able to turn it in there. I've been known to saw off an old one.

One more note since I wrestled in removing mine last week. . . Its very tight to get in there, takes 9/16" like beartracks posted. It look like a tiny tea cup upside down, you'll see the wire lead.
Grabbing it around the outside with large pliers and turning will not loosen the threads holding it onto the block. Make sure you start the job with a short wrench (or don't bother).
Good Luck.
