Default Re: Location of oil pressure sending unit

This is the layout for the Ford setup.
The sending unit is mounted horizontally.
If you are using an original sending unit mounted horizontally pay attention to the embossed arrow on the cover. It is supposed to be mounted with the arrow facing UP.
Has something to do with gravitational forces affecting proper operation of the gauge.
