KINDA MISSED OUT ON THE LAST FEW HOURS OF YOUR VEHICLE'S HISTORY.......PRIOR TO CHANGING THE SWITCH......INCLUDE THE OIL LEVEL (HISTORY)....WHY YOU CHANGED THE SWITCH......AN ENGINE SIZE MIGHT BE NICE TOO!

ARE YOU DRIVING IT NOW?

IS IT A "TICKING/ TAPPING" OR A KNOCK-KNOCK-KNOCK--LIKE SMACKING A BRICK FLAT ON A BRICK WALL

WHAT IS THE OIL PRESSURE NOW----AND IN THE PAST?
