#4356 of 4387 Oil Pressure Gauge by evandro Feb 02, 2007 (11:43 pm)
The gauge indicates maximum oil pressure as soon as the engine is running. When the key in inserted and twisted to the ACC position, the gauge hand does its dance between the ends of the scale as other gauges, then comes back to 0. When the engine starts, it moves to 120 and stays there.   Maybe the oil pressure sensor is hosed, maybe there's something wrong with the engine. Has anybody had this problem? Any tips?   TIA Replies to this message: scscars (Feb 08, 2007 8:09 pm) brumby (Mar 27, 2007 7:04 am) chiefbob (Jan 08, 2008 5:48 pm)

Replying to: evandro (Feb 02, 2007 11:43 pm) I had the same problem last week when the weather went below zero for several days. The problem was a shorted out oil pressure gauge sensor. My Pontiac dealer replaced the sensor and the sending unit. Total cost including parts and labor was $175. Hope this helps.

I am repairing a '95 bonneville for my neice. The original motor was siezed and swapped out for a '93 3.8l. The '93 does not seem to communicate withj the '95 computer. It runs fine in reverse but spits and sputters in drive. What can I do short of finding a '95 motor ?

Replying to: rcpilot10 (Feb 11, 2007 7:14 am) Things to check if you haven't already: clogged fuel filter, cinked fuel line, fuel pump should put out 3 to 5 psi,check electronic ignition for sufficient spark, check gap on spark plugs, replace plug wires, check dist. cap for cracks, check fuel injectors for even spray, remove and clean all grounds, a diognostic check should tell if your computer is functioning properly, check computer connection for corrosion,check catilitic converter. doc68
