Default Re: Low Oil Pressure..

Mine gauge started pegging off the scale- kind of an erratic flutter sometimes.

same sensor issue? I do have the socket (haven't used it in 15 years).

Talking Re: Low Oil Pressure..

Thanks all!

It ended up being the oil pressure sensor as everyone said. Once I returned my defective Snap On GM oil pressure socket.. ya, the original one wouldn't fit the sensor and turned out to be the first defective socket my 30 yr. vetern Snap On dealer has ever seen... lucky me, eh??!!

Anyways, checked the pressure with the mechanical test gauge and determined my dash gauge reads about 8psi high. Didn't leave it on long enough for the car to warm up, just wanted to make sure all was good... and it was.

Glad that's over. Next step, new rubber to replace my 2002 mint Goodyear F1's... (well, the fronts anyways)
