Default oil pressure bouncing around . . .

while at around 3500 to 4000 r.p.m. my oil pressure gauge is bouncing around
erratically between 30 and 50 lbs (502 engine normally runs about 40-45 lbs oil pressure)

oil pressure is fine at idle

oil level is fine

i'm thinking it could be the sender

any thoughts?

where is the sender located on a 1997 502?

Hmmm,

Are you seeing this on both motors or just on your port motor? I think you should change your screen name to mpiMagic34onHavasu

LOL

Jealous? I believe that motor has to work harder to turn your dual Hydraulic steering such that is constantly under load, therefore creating heat differences. Could be a sensor though, just my thought.

I am not sure Lake Havasu Water just called and said we dumped 9000 gallons of water in our backyard. Low lifes turned my water on, I bet at the construction site behind my house and forgot to turn it off.

So i am up in the air, besides i still have that fuel problem with the pickup tubes. I can sure use your help moving tonight the big stuff TV, Refridgerator etc.

let me know. I like thunderstorms they are all around havasu they barely ever hit us.

We can run my boat it is here too.
