The sender is ontop of the oil pump housing (where your oil filter is). You could always just run an aftermarket oil pressure gauge - you just replace the old sender with the one in the kit.

yeah the time ***in around with the factory one id honestly just connect up an aftermarket one... make sure its connected up snug and tight, u dont want oil shooting in your cabin Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

ive been down this road before, you can buy a 't' piece that suits the factory oil pressure sender thread type so you can run the std oil sender as well as the oil switch for the computer in the same fitting. you just connect it to the factory wire (blue i think) that runs to the dash, this operates in the same mannor as normal. cheers
