Krem, your issue sounds like either a fault in the wiring or the sender... I'd try cleaning the contacts first though. I really don't like the way they fasten.

Any mechanical oil pressure gauge will work. For the hose you may need to get a hose made or get adapters to connect to the 1/8" BSP port. I wouldn't even pull the stock sender, there's another port...

If you mean he's suggesting adding an aftermarket gauge and sender, well, that's an option... BUT, you'll still need to fix the stock unit... the ECU read it too. ;)

Well, did you over torque the covers? If you did you can check for warpage by holding them against a piece of glass... no biggie. After you reinstall (and put RTV in the right place here too) if you...
