Hello, My name is Graham or Gray. i live in South Yorks and ive recently bought this low mileage 4.2



This is my first TVR and i must say its an awesome machine
and i love it , reguardles of the few little faults ive found

The first job i want to address is the oil pressure warning light



As you can see it does nt work, the oil preesure gauge works fine and ive had the speedo out and the bulb is in A1 working condtion, so i think there must be a wire off under the bonnet or the sensor on the engine is faulty, ive had a quick look but i carnt find the sensor on the block

Where is it ?confused

by the way, this is my first post on pistonheads and im sorry if the pics are a little big

reguards Gray

That looks like my old car!...... I part-x'd it in June.. If you need any information about it let me know. vectra105@hotmail.com

The oil pressure gauge worked when i sold it, i know the bulb for the speedo was not working, but all the other electrics were spot on.

Good to see it again :-) Although i'd replace the milk bottle cap that i had to use in an emergency on the water jet bottle :-)

The oil pressure switch is located underneath the coil pack mounting plates at the top rear of the engine.

Remove fuel rail,coil packs and the plate and it will appear
