right, but this is a W124 and uses a signal wire from a pressure sending unit on the driver's side of the oil pan. It's the first thing I'll check when I get time to look at the car properly.

If it is like my 123's the oil pressure is a line rather than a wire....If it were disconnected you would know about it in short order from the oil squirting out of the line or fittings. Mike ----- Original Message ----- From: "Kevin J. Slater" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

Subject: [MBZ] zero oil pressure this am..


I was getting ready to back out of the garage this morning and for
whatever reason I decided to watch the oil pressure gauge come up on my
87 300TD. It didn't. I thought maybe it was just slower to come alive
than I remember. Popped the hood and didn't see or hear anything odd.
Popped the oil fill cap and didn't see the normal amount of blowby.
Shutdown the engine.

I did do some work on checking the wiring to the aux fan, maybe I
managed to knock the oil pressure sender line out of whack? What else
should I start checking?
