Thanks. I agree with the ASAP so i called my mechanic after sending that email. I have mechanical (hydrolic lines) gauges that show good pressure. I rebuilt one gear two years ago at a cost of $8,000. I called the mechanic that did that work and he said if the mechanical gauge shows good pressure then it is either a bad sending unit or some electrical conections that need cleaning.
What do you mean by " early " pressure? can you tell me more?
