[QUOTE="sparkywig, post: 635808, member: 3541"] If the oil pressure switch is overtightened it can cause the case to split and leak oil. It's hard to trace this leak unless you have someone watching the engine as you rev it. In the worst case it can crack the case half all the way round to the bottom, making the case scrap.
