Mike,
I had a simiilar problem with my 1.6 cvh. Oil pressure switch was working fine. I took the sump off injected oil straight into the pump. No matter how long I cranked it for it would not turn the oil pressure light off. I looked on one of the ford forums and apparently it is a common thing on the 1.6 cvh. In the end I just started it and it went out within a few seconds.

Mine wouldn't go out either with hand cranking or when the engine was spinning from the starter but not starting up. Once I got it running though the light went out after 5-10 seconds.

I had a go a wiring up a simple ignition circuit for my CVH just using the EDIS module and coil pack
 IMAG0307 by mjb22001, on Flickr  edis4 by mjb22001, on Flickr I did get a spark when cranking the engine over but it seemed a little weak. So i wondered if I had it wired correctly. The black wire is the positive feed to the coil pack and edis. I didnt' have the 25uf suppression to ground fitted as I dont' have whatever a 25uf looks like  Also I wasn't 100% sure on the terminals 1 and 3 on the coil pack The leads and plugs are fairly old also. Any thoughts

The ht leads dont fit the cvh head so I wandered what any ones anyone have used?
Also what spark plugs? as apparantly this can have an effect when swapping to EDIS

I think i used fiesta leads or ford ka, just went to local motor factors and looked at a few ford sets from around the coilpack era until i found some

The Radio Supressor should nto make any difference on starting, it's often even ommited from the ford diagrams.
