Update. New oil pressure sender...
Good evening.
I installed a new oil pressure sender same model as the one I replaced.
The oil pressure gauge pegs when I attach the sender wire to the new sender post.
Tested the new sender.
Measured resistance after 30 minute warm-up from sender post to ground wire from battery.
62.5 ohms
Measured resistance after shutdown. 280 ohms then 310 ohms after 30 minutes cool down.
Next I will attach sender directly to gauge.
Currently sender post wire travels from sender, to a grounding junction, then from junction wire to gauge.
Also, in case this is the wrong sender. Anyone know if the stock 80 psi 240/33 sender on a 70's era Pearson 30 is available?
Successful replacement options without replacing both sender and gauge on a stock Pearson 30?
Welcome thoughts.
Fair winds.
