    Oil pressure sending unit?

    Hi there!

    I would need some help finding the correct oil pressure sending unit, I am converting to a european 911s gauge with temp/pressure (drück)

    Gauge


    Could someone shed som light over what sender I need to get? The only spare one I found is this 5 bar dual pole one but I assume it isn´t any good, right?



    Hugely thankful for your help!

    The sender will be fine.

    Saw some setups with the same sender...

    Barwaut, thanks for helping me out!

    Are you sure about the sender? Seems odd since it says "0-5 bar" and the gauge reads 0-10? Is there a way to run both idiot light and pressure?

    Not questioning you, just making sure I got it right =)

    Jesse,

    Do a search on the 912 BBS.
    Dixon posted some great pictures about this issue.
    Yes, you can run both lights, but you'll lose the parking brake light (unless you combine the pressure and parking brake light....)

    912's don't have pressure above 5 bar, so the 5 bar is better.
    It's a 911 gauge...

    For a 10 bar gauge you need a 10 bar sender.

    The dual terminal sending unit is used for the pressure gauge and idiot light. "G" is for the gauge and "WK" is for the light.

    You will need a 10 bar sending unit to go with your gauge.
    The 924 uses a 10 bar dual-terminal sending unit. VW/Porsche part number 047-919-561
