oil pressure gauge hook up
Hey guys,
So the previos owner said he had a aftermarket oil pressure gauge hooked up and then removed it. And he never hooked back the stock gauge.
Now i would like to get the stock one to work but i dont know how to go about it. or is it easier to hook up an aftermarket one? I dont know how to do that but i'm willing to learn.
But what should i look for to get the stock one to work. thats what i would prefer..

most after market sensors will require at least a 2 inch spacer to fit in the stock location.

the stock oil psi sensor is a one wire unit with a slip on connector, it attaches to the nail head looking part on the stock unit, its mounted underneath the stock location oil filter pedestal. the wire feeds to the gauge cluster, and to the ecu as well.

so id say its good chance the wires there. the wire is above the starter and below the brake booster, start by looking next to the fuel filter, it should be white or yellow or both colors.your stock oil pressure unit will be a shiny gold brown color with a pin that looks like a nail head.
