Hope,

I would get a mechanical gauge from a parts store and confirm oil pressure isn't low. If it is, that can lead to other issues.

When I say a mechanical gauge, it is for testing only. As mentioned, often times a parts store will lend one to you.

All you do is remove the "New" electric pressure sensor and screw in the mechanical one. That way, there are no electronics that can cause a false reading.

I attached the manufacturer's oil pressure specifications below. The pressures indicated are at the low end of things, so it should be a little higher. However, as long as it is within the specs, it should be fine.

Let me know if you are comfortable doing that.

Take care,

Joe
