<html> <DIV> <P><BR>I have an 84, so I don't have the dual sender/buzzer set-up. Both depot and bus boys carry the parts. But I believe I'm swapping out the vdo adapter hose for hard plumbing once I get the time. I'm also thinking the dual sender isn't worth the mystery. Stick with the .3 bar VW sender unit. Just use a "T" instead to enable both to be used. The question to ask is are you having oil pressure problems? If so, are you prepared to run the wire, install the sender, and mount the gauge somewhere on you dashboard (plus electrical work)? It's a nice gauge and it really narrows down problems and lets you know if your engine is the culprit.. But replace the VW senders at the same time and consider your oil pressure relief valve before considering engine work.</P> <P>Brian<BR></P></DIV> <DIV></DIV> <DIV></DIV>>From: "Andrew Fox"<AFOX@USGS.GOV> <DIV></DIV>>To: Brian Cochran<RANGERBRIAN@HOTMAIL.COM> <DIV></DIV>>Subject: Re: Fwd: RE: VDO Oil Pressure sender specs <DIV></DIV>>Date: Mon, 26 Mar 2001 09:15:57 -0500 <DIV></DIV>>Hey Brian, <DIV></DIV>> <DIV></DIV>>Where did you get the dual sender and the VDO gauge?
