Was hoping that someone could help me to identify a couple of sensors >
Second,  there is a small sensor that appears to be installed in a oil
passage on the plugs side of the engine.  Its toward the back and can be
seen
in the same pic with the sensor described in the paragraph above.  I
think it
is an oil temp sensor but still not sure.  It appears that this is the
usual
location of a oil pressure sensor on a 13B but I'm pretty sure that this
in
not a pressure sensor.  Again, any ideas would be helpful.  I have not
yet
been able to identify a sensor that looks like an oil pressure sensor.

Thanks for your assistance!!!
Sincerely,
Don Mitcehell


I Believe that the small sensor that you are looking at is the Water temp
sensor.It is located just to the left of a small plug (in your picture) that
is the location for the oil pressure sending unit. I had trouble figuring
out the same thing on my engine.
