[QUOTE="DaleH, post: 414335, member: 15636"] V6s have a vacuum switch for "fuel restrictions" but if I recall correctly this was a constant tone alarm (at 3/4s throttle and above) like the overheat, less the SLOW mode was enabled. In fact, it ran off the same circuit with a blocking diode to prevent the SLOW mode coming on (intentionally mis-times the OB) for fuel restrictions. This VRO2 oil system is the 2-wire one ... not the newer 4-wire with System Check, and the 2 leads are right there, low on the port side of the motor. I jut caped them with adhesive-lined heatshrink. Whereas I have the old oil tank the guy had used, maybe I should just temporarily hook it up and see what happens ... [/QUOTE]
