LPWS adding a rising oil pressure switch (ROPS)
« on: September 07, 2024, 11:10:26 AM »
I know I could use a T fitting with the existing oil pressure switch but I am hoping that there is somewhere else on my engine's crankcase that would take a second sender/switch.  I want to try using a ROPS to energise my leisure alternator.

If I remember correctly there is only one take off point for the oil pressure on this engine. The way Lister would do it would be to use an oil distribution block. You would then pipe between the pressure take off point and the block. The block would have a number of take off points for various senders, switches etc.
