Hey all you guys! So in my 87 N/A, my Oil gauge does,t actually work. The needle sits a little above the 0 about half way to the 30. Any idea how to fix this? Is this a common issue or what? I'm not low on oil opt anything, just wondering if I can do anything to make it work better. Thanks guys!

 

Replace the sending unit.

Where can I get that? Is that pretty standard to get?

 

You can ask around at local auto parts stores. I'm not completely sure whether they stock them or not.

- Rock Auto: Beck/Arnley
- Rock Auto: Airtex/Wells
- Rock Auto: Standard Motor Products
- eBay: "RX7 oil sender"
- Mazda Trix: 81-92 Oil Pressure Sending Unit
- Mazda dealership

 

dont ever trust the stock gauge.

 

Why not?

 

i had a problem like that and my buddy who knew electrical just gave it a new wire that goes from the sender straight to my guage cluster now it works fine
