I'm already 1" into the loom with the connections that I made last night,
but I've checked 3-4 inches further and can't find anything.
With the engine stopped contact 'G' on the oil pressure sender is sitting at
75ohms, well above the 5-10 range that it should be, next job is to fit the
new sender that I bought a couple of months ago.
