WTB: 66 Oil Pressure Sending Unit NOS
« on: September 01, 2016, 11:56:52 AM »
Looking for an 65 w/gauges / 66 NOS oil pressure sending unit.

Can use either the logo as pictured or FoMoCo logo one. Would like to have the square base (where it is tightened) as pictured as opposed to the later hex style.

Will consider any date code.

Brant: I've had these re-plated with good results.  You'll need to screw a cap on the bottom and at the top, remove the brass nut and fiber seal, replace with a smaller washer and nut.

Thanks for the tip, Charles.

Do you have any good used ones? I'll try it.

Not sure if it's correct for what you are looking for. Marked 100 on one side of the square and H6 on the other side.

You must exercise extreme caution when loosening and taking off the top nut. You have to keep the thread stationary while removing the nut. If you spin the threaded section you risk breaking the internal connection and rendering the sender useless.

My guess is the max pressure rating.
