CLosest to the spark plug is your water temp gauge sensor.


The one behind it that is larger is the oil pressure sensor.

Thats interesting, I actually have an aftermarket oil pressure gauge which the previous owner installed instead of fixing the builtin one... You can see in this pic where the aftermarket one connects (its not electronic) down below...



Is it usual for the electronic oil pressure sensor to go? maybe I could replace that and the stock gauge would work again?

Cheers for the info there, good to know what they are at last heh.

Regarding the camera, its just a 1.2 megapixel one, but on macro mode! Thats the key to the closeup clarity.

I have fuel lines running through the top of that area, one coming from the fuel filter and one being a return line from the fuel rail (I think). What area does your fuel line run through?

The stock guage is not considered accurate, so i'd keep the aftermarket.

My fuel lines are there, they are just up against the firewall (outside the photo), and stay close to the firewall until they reach the other side of the engine.

I'll keep the aftermarket guage, but it's good to know now what those sensors are for.

The camera is a Canon Powershot A30 (quite old)... I'd check if your camera has a macro mode.. Then when you take photos between 4 and 12 inches away from what you want to capture, it comes out real clear.

Cheers
