Bomberjeep Posted January 2, 2023 Share Posted January 2, 2023 OK, so I know this horse has been beaten to death, but I’m trying to find a specific answers. My 88 Comanche with a 2.5l has had the gauge cluster swapped by one of the numerous previous owners. I don’t believe that they changed the oil pressure switch and the coolant temperature switch. I’m trying to find specific part numbers for those items. then all I have to do is just swap them out and the existing plug will fit in and work?

jdog Posted January 2, 2023 Share Posted January 2, 2023 @eaglescout526 Should have numbers as he has done that swap Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The engine mount prevents the sensor from going in. How’d you work around that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eaglescout526 Posted January 14, 2023 Share Posted January 14, 2023 Strange. My 2.5L doesn’t have the elbow for my pressure sensor if that’s the issue your having. The old one is a switch that when it hits no pressure it just turns on a light. The bigger mopar looking unit is a true sensor. Anywho if there’s an elbow preventing you from installing it you can always remove the elbow and put it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The motor mount is physically in the way. It’s odd because I’m sure there are MJs with the full gauge cluster and 4 cylinders. Is there supposed to be an adapter? I thought about going to Lowe’s to see if there may be a brass 45 degree elbow or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are 100% correct here, Eaglescout526's Jeep has one. Could you post pictures of what you have going on? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your sensor has the 90* adapter coming out of the block. Mine just comes straight out. Ok so armed with that knowledge, I’ll have to hit up the auto parts stores and see what I can rustle up.

Very easy to find at auto parts or hardware stores in a variety of bends. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You’re right, i don't know how I didn’t notice it before. For some reason I was thinking it wasn’t there on mine. But that’s weird that yours doesn’t have the 90* elbow.
