The oil pressure gauge has no such fault as issued, your gauge or sender has an error.

I tend to agree with the fault being in the sender or the gauge. My 1HZ reads 1/3 at 3000rpm and bottom mark at idle when engines at operating temp.

With an after market gauge on the truck it reads 40psi at idle and 65psi at 3000rpm.

I've shorted the sense wire at the pressure sensor to earth and the gauge read 1/2. I'm told by many 80's owners in Oz that this is quite normal and the gauge in the truck is pathetic and not designed for accurate information.

If some one can come up with a mod I'd be very interested. I just want the gauge at 1/3 at idle and 2/3 at 3000rpm.
