The oil gauge in the 77-80 MGBs are connected to an oil pipe (435-435) that 
goes to a connector (180-245) and then on to another pipe (376-180).  Into 
the connector a switch (141-715) is screwed in.

My questions are:
  Does the switch just screw in without a washer?.  I find that it does not 
screw down onto a shoulder so a washer cannot be used.

Can the switch be used to activate an oil pressure failure light?  It says 
it is for an ant-run on valve!  Its location is better than running a wire 
from the oil pump!!!
