Hey guys I have a 94 GT with 100,414 miles on it just recently I notice when given gas the oil pressure goes to normal when at idle it goes down to
no pressure at all what does this?? I have changed out my oil sender that did not help changed the oil and filter still did not help?? :dunno:

The gauge might be bad. Hook up a mechanical one to it and see if it still does it.

Does the engine run rough at idle? If so you may have spun a main bearing. Might be a good idea to check your oil. Thats what happened to mine.

It might be the actual gadge(in the cluster) but keep taking the sending unit back until you go though 5 or so. If you have no oil pressure then you wouldn't be going anywhere.

Get a REAL gauge. Mine did the same thing and when I put my Autometer gauges in, it showed like 50-55 psi and the stock gauge was on the N in NORMAL.
