Question Did you ever wonder ...

... what the inside of your oil pressure sender looks like? For your amusement -




This was giving me a low (~1 bar) and lifeless reading. Fearing the worst, I put the car on the trailer & cut my most-recent DE event short by a few runs ...

With the aid of the trusty Dremel, I decided to do the post-mortem. The missing screw at one end of the wire-wound resistor gave a tell-tale rattle, but I don't think it had anything to do with the actual failure. The two wipers that slide along the resistor with oil pressure variation are barely making contact with the resistor.

The order for a replacement sender has placed with our host!

Damn, I always wondered what the inside of one of those looked like! You know, it's just how I thought!
