U20 Oil Pressure sensor

Post by Minh »

Where is it located? Is there one?

I can find it nor the wire. I looked at the wiring diagram and I am thinking it is called something other than oil pressure unit. Help. :)

BTW: "Harley" cranked over last night. Woo hoo!!! Bad news the Rocker arms fell off the sping seats. Hmmm, go figure?

BTW2: The altenator may be bad I saw a puff of smoke.

oil line

A stock U20 oil pressure gauge has a hard line coming off the block to the back of the gauge. Mechanical gauge not electrical.

Thanks...

I'm sorry. But, where off the block? I don't remember hardlining anything other than the tachometer towards the dash...

This is from memory, but..

Look in between the dist mount and the oil filter. The Oil line comes off the side of the block, down low, in between them when looking from above.
There is a flex line about 8" long that leads to a mount on the framerail that starts the hard line.

Correction, Between the oil filter and the fuel pump. I just took a look and I was off a bit on my guess.
