oil pressure sending unit 1600
1 - 9 of 9 Posts
101 Giulias used mechanical oil pressure gauges, so the car wouldn't have a sending unit.
The gauges themselves are pretty reliable. However, the flex hose from the engine tends to break - they become brittle after exposure to heat from the exhaust manifold. So if the oil pressure gauge isn't working, check first if the feed line has just been blocked off.

I suppose that the 1600 could be a Spider junior or GT junior in which case it might have an electrical oil pressure gauge.
I contributed to an active thread concerning use of a modern Bosch sender with an older Alfa gauge.

Yea, I thought of that too. But Somer posted this in the "Giulietta & Giulia (1954-65)" section, so I assume that's what he has.
Nonetheless, some more information would have been useful; stuff like clarifying the year/model of Alfa, whether it's a Jaeger or Veglia gauge, how the gauge does behave, ....
