Before Or After?

[A2TheA 0]

is the oil pressure sensor found before or after the oil filter?

 

*edit*

also does the oil filter, filter the oil before the oil is pressured through the crankshaft or just the oil pumped to the head?

 

Thanks

I would certainly hope the filter filters all the oil it should be the first thing the oil passes through after the pump's picked it up?

 

I would suspect from it's location that the pressure sensor is post-filter in one of the gallerys that crosses the front of the block and feeds the crank, but that's just purely a guess.

its after the oil filter of course!

 

oil flow is the following:

 

sump -> pump -> filter -> block -> crank + head
