Hi all,
Now that the car is running I working through some electrical problems.
Managed to determine the cause of my malfunctioning water temperature
and gas gauge today (bad voltage stabilizer). Also found out I have a
faulty oil pressure sender. A couple questions:
1. What should the resistance of the sender be at rest? (mine shows
infinite currently)
2. Anyone ever replace a oil pressure sender on a '69 B with a modern
sender unit? (Or if I know the resistance I can cross ref to one)
3. One wiring diagram I have (Haynes) shows the oil gauge to be fed
power from the voltage stabilizer. Mine is fed from a green wire on the
"B" side of the stabilizer (not regulated) which is consistent with the
factory workshop manual. Since I have seen it both ways I am curious if
the oil pressure gauge should have regulated power. Thoughts?
So many questions.
Thanks,
Chris
