Title: oil pressure gauge reading values
Post by: Bob Gaines on April 27, 2025, 04:41:46 PM
I can't find in my notes what the unmarked oil pressure gauge in a 66 registers at the high end. Is it 60,80 or 100 PSI ? A working pressure gauge and the number of 60,80 or 100 marked on the base of of the corresponding oil pressure bell shaped sender would tell the tale.

I should clarify that I am trying find the proper value of sender for the stock gauge. It has to be ether 80 or 100.

The '66 style bulb senders have 80 printed on one side of the square base.

That is what I suspected. Thank you.
