914World.com _ 914World Garage _ need help asap - oil pressure gauge problem

Posted by: Bill Smith Oct 21 2006, 05:04 PM

Running in a DE today - looked at oil pressure gauge and it was very low and not responding to rpm. Dummy light works but was not on at the time. I think my gage went bad but stopped early.

I have a dual oil pressure sender - It was 0 ohms with the motor not running and up to 70 ohms running.

I still have tomorrow - engine shows no weird signs of over heat and is running regular.

Without a new presssure gauge how can I check to be sure the it is the gauge and not the motor?

Crap, I would be so scared to run it. Lemme think- how about pulling a valve cover , starting it up, and seeing (really quickly) if oil goes EVERYWHERE!
