Just got back from vacation and while towing fifth wheel up I-95 headed towards St. Augustine Fla my oil pressure gauge starts going from 15-40 lbs and then dropping to 0 and the idiot light comes on. I pull off and check everything I could and fiquired it had to be the sending unit- which I could not find- so I chanced starting back up again. After another hour towing the engine was purring so I guessed I really had oil pressure. Well the Dodge dealer in St. Augustine is open on Sat and had the sending unit in stock. He evan asked one of the mechanics where it was for me. You also need a special socket to remove it and need to be a doulbe jointed contortionist to reove it. Got appt for monday morning- 2 hours and $128 later my gauge reads 45 lbs and the idiot light is off.

Oil Pressure Sending Unit
I really had oil pressure. Well the Dodge dealer in St. Augustine is open on Sat and had the sending unit in stock. He evan asked one of the mechanics where it was for me.
