 Subject: Oil pressure gauge
 
 This weekend I replaced the oil pressure sensor on my 91 Spider.  The Oil
 pressure gauge has never registered anything in the time I have owned this
 car- Since Jan 99.  After replacing the sensor, I started the car and let it
 reach normal operating temp.  My understanding is that during Idle, Spiders
 do not register oil pressure.  >>

Absolutely not!!! At idle should typically be pointing at first tick mark ---
manual always says 7-10 psi ----- I need see good engines below about 20-25.
Are you sure you replaced the correct sending unit ---- rear side below intake
manifold --- above starter.  The sender is almost always the problem.
