Not sure what happened over the winter, but my oil pressure gauge is now pegged to the right. Worked fine all last driving season. Can a shot sender unit be the cause? Mine is really old. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)

Remove the wire from the sender if the gauge drops it's the sender, if it doesn't the wire is shorted to ground somewhere.
