SUBJECT:

Some 1990 and 1991 light duty trucks with gages may experience an oil pressure gage that may flutter or show unusually high oil pressure (full scale).
Cause:
The internal resistance wire in the sensor may not be properly supported, resulting in an intermittent open condition.
SERVICE PROCEDURE:
Check for normal causes of high oil pressure gage readings (high resistance or open circuit), such as
a poor ground path caused by loose sensor mounting, oil cooler adapter loose, or poor electrical connections. If no cause can be found, replace the oil
pressure sensor with the correct new part number from the chart below.
