Hi Chris,
	Thanks for the email.  Last night I ordered new pressure
senders and a new relay.  If I don't need the relay, I'll probably
return it.  Plus, I think the sender on the cylinder head is probably
good also, but since it was cheap and I was already paying S/H . . .
	It will be nice to get this all fixed eventually.  Even though
my oil pressure is good, I hate the fact that I have a warning light
flashing and I'm ignoring it.  I fear the day that it turns on 
legitmately and I ignore it thinking it is a false alarm.

Cheers,
Bryan
