Howdy all-
Hoping you can provide me some guidance. After searching forums I've found similar issues but none like mine.
04 Sport Trac, 4.0 motor. My oil pressure dummy gauge points at the speedo most of the time. When I start the truck, the gauge always moves. Or, sometimes, it "quivers," like it's trying to actuate. Rarely, it goes from "Zero" to right in the middle, like it's supposed to. Most of the time, it points wherever it damn well pleases. Always, once the engine is up and running, the needle doesn't move, wherever it's landed. It doesn't vibrate, or bounce around.
I've replaced the oil pressure switch, no change. I have oil pressure; no lifter noise on startup, no bad noises or smells or lights on.
What should my next course of action be?
