Hi,
I have just bought a 1999 spacestar at auction. It is a 1.8 GDI with 74000 miles and a full mitsubishi service history.
The oil pressure light has been flashing on and off intermittently, however the oil level is fine and there seems to be oil circulating around the whole engine. I changed the oil and filter yesterday and the level has remained constant.
It runs really smoothly and quietly with no smoke or steam, and the temperature does not rise above the middle of the gauge.
The next stage is to check the pressure switch, I have bought a replacement from my local parts supplier, it is an intermotor IN50811, however it looks different to the part shown on the Japarts website:
Intermotor:
Japarts:
Do I have the correct part? Also, where is the switch located on the engine, I would also like to know if there is a haynes type manual available for the car.
Thanks
