Okay so i know ford has an issue with building "functional" oil pressure gauges, now my issue is that, i have already replaced my oil pressure sending unit once before and my pressure gauge needle went back to "normal" at mid point of the Low and High. Now seeings how this sending unit i have now is fairly new (2-3 months old) my gauge is fluttering like mad when i hit higher revs. I noticed this morning that it now flutters when its idling. I did an oil change long before i had this problem and have been checking my oil frequently. I don't know why its doing it because my basepan is full of oil and i've been driving around for a long time with the needle going nuts. Not to be defeated, i went out and bought a lucas oil oil stabalizer and threw it in the motor and its still running fine. I guess my question is, Can mud and water and different elements cause the sending units to become fubar or do i have internal issue? Like i have said i've been driving the truck for a while now and its still running fine.
My check engine light has been on for 2 years, but i am fully aware of the code it's reading, P1442 or something about the EVAP canister that i have yet to fix.
