Description

The 76061-2 is an oil pressure sender / pressure switch used to monitor engine oil pressure and trigger a connected circuit when pressure drops to the set point. Current source support strongly matches this part family to the Stewart-Warner 76061 / SW76061 pressure switch pattern, which is specified as a 2 PSI switch point unit with 1/8″-27 NPTF male thread, 2 screw terminals, and normally closed (NC) operation.

This style of sender is built for use with motor oils and similar hydrocarbon media and is designed for compact, corrosion-resistant installation in engine-monitoring applications. Current Stewart-Warner specifications list a temperature range of -40°F to +250°F and operating pressure up to 145 PSI for the 1–24 PSI set-point range.

Key Features

• Oil pressure sender / pressure switch
• Part reference: 76061-2
• Strong current spec match to Stewart-Warner SW76061 / 76061 series
• 2 PSI switch point
• 1/8″-27 NPTF male thread
• 2 screw terminals
• Normally closed (NC) operation
• Compact, corrosion-resistant construction

Application / Compatibility
Specific Walters application fitment was not confirmed in the reviewed sources. The strongest supported facts are the pressure-switch specifications for the 76061 / SW76061 pattern. Fitment should be verified by thread size, terminal style, switch point, and the existing sender markings before ordering.

Fitment Verification Notice
Fitment should be confirmed by matching:

• 2 PSI switch point
• 1/8″-27 NPTF male thread
• 2 screw terminals
• Normally closed circuit type
• Existing part marking / sender style.

When This Part Needs Replacement
Replace the sender if the oil-pressure warning circuit becomes unreliable, the switch leaks, the terminals are damaged or corroded, or the sender no longer changes state correctly at the specified pressure point. A failed oil-pressure sender can create false warnings or prevent a low-pressure alert from working properly. This general maintenance guidance is based on the component’s function; the reviewed sources mainly provide specifications rather than service intervals.

Installation Notes
Install only where the required switch specification matches the system. Confirm thread type, terminal layout, and pressure set point before installation. Current specifications describe this part family as suitable for air, motor oils, transmission oils, jet fuels, and similar hydrocarbon media.

Alternate / Superseded Part Numbers when applicable

• SW76061
• 76061(current source states SW76061 supersedes 76061)

Parts Desk Insight
The main thing to match on this part is function, not just appearance. On pressure switches like this, the wrong PSI set point or wrong circuit type can make the warning system behave incorrectly even if the threads fit.
