pressure switch for 5th injector

[MESTWHT]

i was on dempsey's site on how to add a 5th injector (saab cold start), and have been able to find all the parts except the napa pressure switch #7011577, i live in nova scotia and the local store though the problem might be that i have an american part number... i figured they'd be able to cross it, but that doesn't seem to be the case. is there any other # i can use, or some way i can ask for it by applicantion? i'm without a printer so i can't even take them a picture to show them what i need thanx in advance - ian

it will be listed as a hobbs preasure switch. they have a book with them in it
I had the part number for the 8-20 psi adjustable one but can't find it right now. just need the book with the preasure switches in it, they have one comes set at 14psi but is adjustabe. I priced it and it is around $44 canadian

I got mine from napa here in saskatoon. the part # on the hobbs box is 76052 15 NO. It is preset @ 15 and is a normally open switch. I am using mine (one @ 19 and the other @ 21). Lots of range in these.

Pigtail in an indicator light on your dash so you know when the injector is on.

thanks very much, the local store called me back and they were able to find it in the end. also, thanks for the tip on the light, never would have thought of that

dude, i was helping a kid play with his turbo lebarron in PEI 2 summers ago and i had the EXACT same problem! the napa guys are retards when it came to that! and when one guy FINALY did dig one out of his but, it was gona be 70$!!! i told him to stick it back up there! i finaly went on to e-bay and found adjustable ones from 5-35 psi for 10$ each! i called the guy up and had him send me a bunch. forget canadian NAPA!! i hate them!!!
the pressure switches i got off e-bay are way nicer anyway. ive also found that on some older VW jettas, siroccos, and rabbits, you can find adjustable pressure switches! i havent ever tested one to see the psi range (or vaccume range as it might be) but theyre on some VWs, turbo audis too. under the hood of a turbo audi, look on the drivers side on the very edge under the hood (right on the inside of the fender) there should be 2 there. they look just like napa switches.

thanks for all the info... i'll know better next time, it's already on route from napa, as for finding it in a junk yard, i'm having a hard enough time with the cold start injector... i've been looking at everything that comes into the shop each day to give the salvage people more options to go check in... i had to explain what, and where to find it in everything i've suggested... i just don't finish work early enough to go find one myself... i'm thinking i should grab one of the injectors off of the escort which has been abandoned in the back yard... should work ok, just need to find a way to glue it in
