Oil pressure gauge

[Kalimaze]

I plan on installing an oil pressure gauge on my alero. I believe I have a good idea of how im going to do it.. does anyone have any insight on a process?

It differs based on what motor you have

[Kalimaze]

Haha duh.. umm 3.4

i used the stock sending unit location for the aftermarket sending unit guage, go with a electric one.

Dident that turn on your low oil light or Check engine light?

[sleepyalero]

No. I removed my stock oil sensor and unplugged it. No lights. Get an adapter to screw into block. And on end of sending unit. Screw it in and wire it up.

When you have a service light come on and you get the car scanned it will pop a code for it. But doesnt illuminate a light. So if the guys at autozone say a few things wrong plus the oil sensor. Just ignore that part.

Thanks!!! I have bought a 1/4 NPT T fitting and an 1/4 - 1/8 adapter. Looks like now I will only need the adapter.
