i got a rebuilt engine and the oil pan only has 1 sensor.my oil pan had 2 sensors do i have to switch the oil pan for the 2 sensors or is it cool? thanks ,jason

oh and its for my 87TII

 

I havent ever switched oil pans... Done several conversions that went from 2 sensors too one... Beats me what they do!

 

One is an oil level switch and the other is an oil temp switch. The level switch is for the warning light and buzzer and the temp switch is fore the sub-zero start assist. JDM engines don't have the sub-zero start assist so they don't have the temp switch.

 

is this ok or do i need the oil temp switch? i dont want to install and then have to remove.but if you say its ok thats cool too.just want to be safe than sorry. thanks, jason

 

Even Mazda recommends the removal of the sub-zero start assist system, so the temp switch is not needed and never will be.

 

thanks for looking out, jason

 

 

my rebuild came with two sensors also, i just left the 2nd one in there not attached to anything.
