Obviously the TVR Parts one should work perfectly, they are available much cheaper on Ebay but might be a lottery as to whether it gives the correct reading

I tried that lottery, costed me 11$ And i lost. Ended up with the one from Tvr-parts in the end.
Well worth the gamble thou!

I have checked car is fitted with a non "tvr" sensor,i will take it to my friendly parts man , I think a decent 100 psi sender should work, I do feel that the TVR part at £60 is a bit dear. Gauge is working now the car is cold,but I think it will fail when car is hot.

TVR Parts don't have sender in stock. They are awaiting stock.

I purchased a 20psi oil switch and Tee piece so that I have a working gauge and also the warning light comes on at 20psi which is much much better than the standard 3psi as the engine would probably be toast at that.
