OK my oil pressure gauge never moves well only time it does move is when I turnit on and off. Anybody have the same thing in everything else I drive it moves so why not in this thing ?

 

mine does the same thing. Right when I turn it on the needle goes right to the middle and doesnt move. Prob jus a dummy gauge.

 

Im going to check it out this weekend

 

What is the engine size, and are you saying that you have no oil pressure??

 

Bad sending unit.

 

I mean when I turn the key on it is like at zero , then when i crank over the motor and it starts it comes up to straight up , and never moves until i kill the truck ..... more like an idiot light .....


it tells me I have pressure just have no clue whether its 4 lbs or 100 lbs

 

Here's what the FSM says

1. Remove oil pressure sending unit (2) and install
gauge assembly C-3292.
2. Run engine until thermostat opens.
3. Oil Pressure:

valve stuck open.

Hope this helps

 

I have woundered the same thing. If it was a real gauge it would go down when at idle and up at I think its just a idiot light dressed up like a gauge. It just looks better to have a gauge.

 

Mine moves like it should.

 

sorry my post sucked, I ment to say be low at idle and go up with your rpm's
