oil pressure switch

(1/2) > >>

Hi, Looking for advise again. does the oil pressure switch tread all the ways down?
Is there a seal for between switch and the oil pump?
My switch  seem to take a lot of pressure to screw down, do not want to shear it
Any advise , ideas would be helpful.

Thanks

Bryanj:
It should be a tapered thread so does not go all the way down, a VERY small amount of liquid pipe sealant on the threads is permissible but not always needed

Trigger:
You beat me to it Bryan.

Should not be a sealing washer on a 400.
