Its a 4.0 chimp/95 /serp/ single terminal / gold.
Where the male spade terminal comes out of the unit is very loose and the thing is reading a bit odd.The female connector is fine it seems to be inside the unit that is knackered and loose.I think the cableties on the wire/chassis have been to tight and not had enought slack in it for engine movment.
I have not had the car long, when cold and warm its about 25psi on tickover and goes to about 30 at revs.But had did she it shoot up to 60 twice when i putt my foot down !!.

methinks something is not quite right there..

That or you have the most phenomenal oil pressure in the world. 25 psi without even using the pump! Impressive
