So I guess this begs the question....why is the pan rusty? Have you had water sitting in the bilge?
Sorry I don't agree with the 10 year old statement. I have a 33 year-old boat with a 15 year-old motor. Still has the original oil pan. But I do understand about the float switch quitting. That happens so often that I quit using them. I now use these....

This is a Water Witch. They are $40-$50 and available on line. https://waterwitchinc.com/product/model-101-bilge-switch/ They work via conductivity caused by bilge water making a connection between the tab on the bottom and the round disk higher on the body of the switch. there are no moving parts and no adjustments. There is a 6-9 second "On" delay and a 14-16 second "Off" delay. this prevents rapid cycling. I had 4 of these on my 52' Motoryacht and they did not fail. In fact this model has a 5-year warranty.
