If it's not one thing, it's another.=C2=A0 I just got my new (rebuilt) alte=
rnator installed on my 1971 MGB yesterday, and I have a used door latch on =
the way.=C2=A0 This morning I started up the car and waited for the oil pre=
ssure gauge to come up, as I always do.=C2=A0 But after a few seconds, no o=
il pressure.=C2=A0 I checked to see that the sump was full - it was.=C2=A0 =
Since I have had good oil pressure all along, I have to believe it has some=
thing to do with the gauge.=C2=A0 I checked all the fuses, and they were al=
l good.
Has anyone had a similar problem, or does anyone have any suggestions where=
 I should look for a solution?=C2=A0 I intend to pull the hose off the oil =
cooler and crank it over, just to make sure it really does have pressure, b=
ut I'm 99% sure that there is pressure - just not showing up on the gauge.
Thanks for your help.
