Good oil pressure sending unit

If I lightly tap on it it works perfectly until it acts up again. I use thread tape but only on the first couple threads so it makes good contact. My buddies comment to me the other day was "did you put thread tape on any of those oil fittings?" Mine was yeah I just know how to use it so it doesn't look like crap.

Never use tape on a oil sending unit. I thought I lost oil pressure one time, 25 miles from the ramp, came home on one motor at 7mph you do the math, when I got home I tested it with mechanical gauge had 60psi, I removed the sending unit their was a little piece of TAPE in the hole of the sending unit. Never use TAPE!!!

I always mount a mechanical gauge at the remote filter on the out side. It's a good check against the electric gauge and also a good way to spot any filter issues
