oil pressure

[atkonkler]

My oil pressure needle is fine at idle, but when it's driven the needle goes apeshit? Anyone else had this problem before? If so was it the oil sender? That's what it is on Chrysler junk 99% of the time.

Re: oil pressure

My needle had spun when I purchased my Sy, I removed the cluster and spun it back around. Before I tried to run it I changed the sender to "prevent" it from happening again. Now the gauge stays at the half mark with the key on engine off and bounces with engine running. I have changed the sender again just to be sure but it still does it.

If it's bouncing around it's the sending unit.... Replace it
