Oil pressure is very good on this rebuilt engine. The gauge would read all over the place from cold to hot but drop low yet the unit never triggered the pressure light. I wasn't convinced it was reading properly. The new unit appears to be far more reliable in a steady gauge.
You can call this either. It's a sender unit because it reads oil pressure mechanically (like a fuel gauge) but the 2 pin units also has a sort of sensor device because it switches on and off. That said, the normal oil pressure device on a Beetle is called an oil pressure switch.
Good video, awful hacksaw technique 😂😂
I know. I'm quite cack-handed but l do get the job done.
Maybe that dog shit part helps indicate poor pressure by being weak at idol allowing for light then at higher rpm none . ??

Don't u mean sensor? Not sender.
