Brief Description:  Engine oil lines, pressure switch

Picked up a dual acting pressure switch that will be used to light an LED in the panel if engine oil pressure drops below 5 psi and also power the hour meter when pressure is above 11 psi.

After checking a few possible orientations for the pressure switch and pressure sender I settled on a vertical orientation for the switch vs sticking out forward near the pulley and belts. This required that the oil line from the filter to the gear sprayer fitting, seen in picture 2, make a couple of quick bends right out of the fitting to clear the switch.

Began fabrication of the pressure line that connects the pump output to the inlet of the filter housing.
