I installed a 911 oil temp and pressure gauge this Winter.
I didnt want to hack up my engine tins to mount the sensor in the stock location so I made bracket and mounted it on the fan housing where the stock coil sits and connected it to the oil pressure port with a piece of steel braided hose with the correct end fittings. It works well and doesnt leak but I've noticed that in long sweeping left hand turns I loose oil pressure, it never goes to zero but once or twice the light flickered on and then immediatly turned off again. Do you think this could be a sensor location thing or perhaps an issue with my tuna can installation? |

Yes I've already started investingating an accusump setup in case I cant find the problem. Do you have any pictures of your setup installed. It would be interesting to see.
