    Help! Location of oil pressure sending unit in '89?

    Thanks for the reply,may be I'm confused.... All I see is a silver round part about three inches long (diameter slightly larger than a quarter) connected to a metal tee coming off the back of the drivers side head very close to the distributor... Nothing resembling the new pressure sending unit...

    Help! Location of oil pressure sending unit in '89?

    Recently purchased a vette-aid plug&play dash and all is well but I cannot find the oil pressure sending unit. The instructions that came with the dash show it located right under the oil pressure switch(3 wire plug) but it's not under the switch. Anywhere else it could be on an '89 auto vette...

    A lot of heat at my feet!

    Beautiful vette! I love the bright red on the C4's :) .... Ya know mine has been,how would I say... Not all together at full throttle,a bit sluggish I guess but still gets to speed. I've only had the vette for about 4 years now and the only thing I haven't messed with is the transmission cause I...

    I think the easiest larger repair on a C4 is.....

    Gotta admit I was pretty worried when my pump died... Till I read how to replace it. Now its on my long list of things easier to replace than the #2 spark plug (I hate that one!!!!).

    A lot of heat at my feet!

    Trip resets when key goes off...

    I have the little box that makes it flash codes if thats what your talking about. I always get a "12-12" . My average mpg also resets with the trip as well. Another thing, the other morning I went out to start it for work and it took about three seperate times of cranking to get the car...

    Trip resets when key goes off...

    Hi everybody! My 89' loves giving me things to do and I'm sure this is no different. Well,this has happened in the past but very rarely.... Well last week I replaced the bulbs in my gauge cluster and a week later this happens. Car still works just fine and nothing else going wrong so its kinda...

    11.4mpg in town in my '89 L98.

    I'll research up on testing some of those sensors (I gotta quit being a cheapo and get that fsm). And the surging at idle when warmed up is real slight and only say,every 3-5 seconds. When it surges its slight as well but happens in the low rpms when taking off from a stoplight but then smooths...

    11.4mpg in town in my '89 L98.

    Thanks guys I didnt think something was right. Yesterday I went and filled up and after some calculationg it came out to like 11.758xxxx mpg. It has no codes,but it does surge a bit at idle,not sure if this is within the same problem but unless warmed up (around 110f),somewhere between...
