No oil pressure !!HELP!!


Recommended Posts

the oil pressure sending unit is beside the oil filter

check the wire to it, mine recently got caught in the pulley beside it and pulled loose.

ALSO these sending units are notorious for going toast, gauges on rare occasion go bad, check the wire to the sending unit.

Ground it and see what the gauge does - should peg to the highest reading.

 

You will be told to put a mechanical gauge on to be sure.

HTH

If I am not mistaken, there is a port, plugged in the other end of the pump. You can try another sending unit or a mech. unit from there. If it isnt making a lot of noise, it is probably ok, but very unerving. They wiill hold together on remarkably little oil pressure.
