oil pressure

I'm troubleshooting my 74-2F oil pressure gauge and am at a point where I'd like to know the expected ohm range for a warm motor at idle VS running RPM 2-3k? The current sender is reading about 10 ohms regardless of RPM and a new one I picked up from NAPA is sticking at about 35 ohms also...

Hello everybody, I am a new member to this forum, but have been reading here for some years and have found lots of helpful info here. I have a 96 LC that I have owned for a few years. 212k on the odometer. A couple of weeks ago I started intermediately losing power steering when turning into...

ok guys, i installed engine and did everything correctly. i went to turn over and it runs. however the oil pressure is zero. before i time it do i have to prime out pump or should it automatically read when turned on and running.

I've recently (well about eight months ago) purchased a 1998 LX470. I've been lurking around this forum and found several very useful threads, Thanks for all the help! I now have an issue that I haven't been able to find any information pertaining to my exact problem. I have an issue with my...

I've just changed the oil in our new (to us) 78 FJ40. Changed the filter as well and now the pressure gauge is reading nothing (way below the L so you ant as the arm). Engine sounds fine, looks like fresh oil in the top. The old oil was very black, is it possible something in the sensor got...

It's been a few months that my LC's oil pressure gauge pointer would sometimes point to the lowest tick mark on the gauge, see attached photo, I was on highway today at a bit over 40mph, even when I was at 55, it was pointing to the lowest. What could be causing it? I remember before it always...

I know this has been beaten down but I need a little quick help. I looked at some threads on this but wanted to ask about mine specifically. When I turn my key on my oil pressure gauge needle goes to the middle reading. When I turn my FJ62 on the needle drops to 1/4 and when I get on the highway...

Hi. Iv got a 1990 HDJ-81 With the 1HDT. How do you get the oil pressure sender out? I need to replace it. Is there a trick to this or do I just need smaller hands? Any help would be great. Thanks. Michael

Yeah....I know, If its running and not knocking...its probably OK. But I just can't stand the factory gauge. After warm up, basically indicates ZERO (or right at it) at idle (650 rpm). It DOES rise immediately with engine rpm, but I'd just like to be able to see numbers instead of an indicator...

Hi Everybody, I don't post much but look at all posts for anything that I feel may help me. The wagon has done 438000 k's, has been converted to duel fuel (LPG and Petrol) and does not burn any oil between oil changes at 15000 to 20000 k's. I use Nulon fully syn 10-40 free flowing oil. On start...

I started noticing my oil pressure gauge complete dead about four months ago, took it to a trusted Toyota master technician, he replaced the solenoid sender, worked for a day went bad again, took it back, he completely cleaned out the instrument panel and cleaned the circuit board from minor...

1997, 3.4L v6, automatic in a 1995 4Runner. 4x4. Notice my oil pressure was low. This picture was taken after it was very warm, rolling between Jeff City and Independence. On start up, pressure is higher. At least above the lowest hash mark. What could it be? I'm thinking an oil pressure...

Searching the forum I can't find any posts describing this condition. '96 FZJ80, 1FZ-FE, 210,000 miles. This is a recent development. On cold start (temps around 40F) I'm registering nearly zero movement on the oil pressure gauge. After warmup (coolant at full operating temp) oil pressure...

I have been looking at 3B threads regarding where to tap oil pressure/oil feed from for a turbo. at the moment all i want is a second oil pressure gauge and future oil feed. a lot of threads are for 40 series where access is available to the factory blanked plugs forward of the stock oil...

Recently I got an oil sample result back that shows excessive wear. Chromium.. iron.. copper.. etc. Pretty much discounted it. Talked to Blackstone and they admit it could have been mixed up with someone else.. but highly unlikely. The LC has 109,000 miles.. sounds perfect.. gets standard...

For a number of years (10?) my oil pressure gauge on my stock '78 FJ40 has indicated high oil pressure. All other gauges are accurate. I have had the truck for 27 years, and it seems that it has read higher-and-higher, as the years have gone by. My 2F has no better (or worse) oil pressure than...

My oil sensor wire shorted to ground and bent the Oil Pressure gauge in the Cluster. I tried to fix it but no luck. Anyone know where to find one? This is what I need. Found the entire cluster on Flea Bay for 115. Keep getting errors trying to upload pic.

Hi All i decided to accurately measure my oil pressure with a mechanical gauge and ultimately replacing the sending unit if necessary. Do you need to drain the oil to remove the sending unit? will it start pouring oil in my face if i remove it without draining the oil? Thanks in advace

Since its turned fairly cold ( like 5 to 25 below zero ) my oil pressure has been really low (like almost nothing) until the engine gets to about 125 to 150* once it get there it starts to read normal. Normal readings for me are (air temp is at least 5 or higher) in the upper 2/3rds of the gauge...
