914World.com _ 914World Garage _ Oil gauge and sender not matching up?

Posted by: PanelBilly Mar 10 2016, 11:37 AM

Do I need to match the sender on my 3.0 engine to my gauge? When I run the engine, the gauge is always pegged to the highest pressure. I've got a mechanical gauge on the engine, so I know what the real pressure is

Yes, use the 911 sender. Both the 911 and 914 gauges have the same temperature range on the scale.

,don't buy a genuine one as they are rather expensive,get one from a VDO dealer,think mine was 150C rated from memory.
