BAlford Posted January 23, 2003 Share Posted January 23, 2003 We drove my 1982 280zx today and the oil gage went all the way to the right and seems to be stuck. The light still works. I haven't done any checking as to the problem, the weather is about freezing so I will check it when the weather is warmer. Any ideas?

Guest 240hybrid Posted January 24, 2003 Share Posted January 24, 2003 yeah the oil gauge connection is prob. disconnected like zedrick said. I had a gas gauge did that on a old truck I had cause it wasnt connected, just hook it back up and came to life. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest De Schmaydee Posted January 27, 2003 Share Posted January 27, 2003 ....i went through 2-3 oil pressure senders in year (they are crap)finally just put in a $40 analogue gauge....you gotta(need to) have a steel braided line to run it inside the car (90psi)...i used the hose sold for the autometer fuel pressure gauge to do that......i also got an oil temp gauge ,i havent hooked up yet (gonna try to hook it up to the oil cooler).....s Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
