My '74 2.0 914 has a 911 dash instrument panel with a Druck Pressure gauge. I have confirmed that my oil pressure sender unit has failed. I'm assuming that a Druck oil pressure gauge and sender is not standard factory equipment for a 914. How do I know what sender to buy?

Thanks, guys. I really miss my pressure gauge not working. Dan

You need the 911 sender for the gauge. Look over at the Pelican 911 section, think there is a cross reference table there. What is the part number on the one you have? It should tell you the Kpa or lbs. Your info should all be on the sender.

Thank you, Mark. Any idea where the part number might be. I'm hoping I don't have to pull it off yet...still enjoying a few more days before snow in Montana.

Get the part number off of the gauge. It is seen thru the glass in the very outer edge. With that you can match to the correct sender. What is the range?

Where is the sender mounted. Got a picture. One or two pole. Part number is stamped on three of the hex sides on the nut. They are often remote mounted. How did you test to know it is the sender? Ground the gauge wire and it should peg the gauge.
