Title: Oil pressure sender part #
Post by: cmayer on July 11, 2015, 01:35:45 PM

Anyone know a part number that I can give an auto parts store to get a 1978 454 oil pressure sender with the screw on post for the wire?

I can only seen to find the one with a spade connector and heard the spade ones are for dummy lights only.

My current sender has no part number on it.

Depends on the gauge. Mine is a 240-33 ohm. VDO# 360-801. Bought it from O'Reilly

Stock spectra marine gauges. I'm not even sure there's a brand on them lol. Guess it makes sense sender has to match the gauge

If 0-80psi, it should be a Stewart Warner 279A
