I'm have trouble locating where the oil pressure switch is on my 4.5, it's a 1999 model as I hear they are different.
I was told it was on top of the engine between the 2 rocker covers.
Can anyone help?

It's under the rear coil pack at the back of the engine

Do you have a switch? Where did you get it from?

I need to do mine too - fancy taking some pictures as you go?

There's been a thread on this previously.

Switches can be hard to get hold of, to get it out can also be a pain as the captive nuts on the coild pacck mounting plinths work loose and then you cannot get the coils off (mount bolts for plinths are under the coil packs).

You need a 1" or 1 1/4" deep socket to undo it (or a normal socket with teh extension bar not seated home).
