Rb - Oil Pressure Sender

[Weezy]

Howdy all,

I've searched the forums on how people fixed their dodgy oil pressure gauge readings and I couldnt find anything so I thought I would make this thread and I'm sure will help ALOT of forum users.

I did see in a few posts amoungst my search that people had 'cleaned' out their sender and presto the gauge worked like a dream because I myself, probably like many others - Do not want to fill their GT-R with filthy gauge therefor making their interior look tacky as - I am destoned to make the factory gauge work mint .

Now please members out there share with me your experiances on how you got around this problem and if you had cleaned it how exactly did you guys go about it. Pictures would be a MAJOR help so if you can get pictures of the sender its self and how you went about it that would be fantastic.

I am mechanically minded so I do know what I am doing but just need to know how you guys went about it so saves alot of 'trial and error' situations with myself and many others out there that will come accross this thread.

Another big question - Can brand new senders be bought from Nissan or any other dealer or even aftermarket senders that will wire upto the standard gauge?

Thanks all,

Wayne.

i know theres aftermarket one , vdo makes them i had to get one for my old tx5

im sure you could get it from nissan

And they wire straight into the standard gauge etc no worries on the TX5?

[08r3308]

mine was straight swap , on skyline im not too sure , best bet would be getting genuine one and using that.

go to your local auto spares shop and ask for one and check prices and how many wires it will have

from memory its under the intake manifold so you can have a look how many wires it has
