Engine oil leak - can't quite place it

Post by Jools1011 »

Hey everyone,

I've finally got around to cleaning down the engine enough to see where my very slow oil leak has been coming from.

I'm not sure of the part and was wondering if someone might know. It's a connection that sits just below the DIS module.

See pic below. Any ideas what this connector is?

Um oil pressure switch connector? More likely water temp sensor

Could be coming from the crush washer or even through the switch itself.

Easy enough to replace for not a lot of money
