    Oil pressure sending unit
    « on: April 06, 2014 - 07:46:02 PM »
    Pulled the car out today and the oil pressure gauge on the rallye dash showed 0. Looked for the sending unit to check the wire and I couldn't find the darn thing  :banghead: Where is it?

    I thought it was on the back of the motor but I couldn't see it. I'll have to look again. Drivers side or passengers side from the distributor?

    Murray, it's in the block, behind the distributor, pretty much in the middle. It's 1/8" pipe, usually round and about 1 1/4" approx in diameter. Hope that helps! Ian  :cheers:
