MADMALC Posted May 22, 2001 Share Posted May 22, 2001 Started to get erratic readings, not going to zero but flickering at a lower than normal reading. Stops doing it if you swithch off and re start. Started after running at constant 4000rpm on motorway for 45 mins. VHPD Rover with dry sump and gold pump. Any ideas, should i tell my wife???

Mike Ellis Posted May 24, 2001 Share Posted May 24, 2001 Malc, I had a similar problem with my gauge,and it turned out to be the sender unit. If that's what wrong with your S/L 'R', it should be safe to tell Mrs McGovern! Both your practice runs at Curburough came out well on the tape. Unfortunately I had to leave before the event proper - how did you get on? Regards 7thumbsup.gifcool.gif L7OOOOH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
murph7355 Posted May 24, 2001 Share Posted May 24, 2001 I've had similar too. First thing to check is that the connections on the pressure sender are sound. Mine were very loose causing the reading to flicker wildly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave H Posted May 24, 2001 Share Posted May 24, 2001 With any electrical problem on the Seven its also worth chcking the earthing. You could have vibrated something loose. As to telling the other half - never a good idea.if she insists on knowing why you spend so much time in the garage, I always tell mine I'm just doing a bit of minor maintenance.

CHRIS CLARK Posted May 24, 2001 Share Posted May 24, 2001 Yeah right Dave! And you think Shaz believes you? I don't think so!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MADMALC Posted May 24, 2001 Author Share Posted May 24, 2001 Thanks for all the help, will try cleaning connection to sender first then new sender if it does not fix it. Curborough?, well fourth in class I think but not enough bottle for the first left hander to be able to do any better I'm afraid. Literally!! As for telling Shirl the Girl, better own up now. As for knowing what I get up to in the garage, video surveillance sees to that, no joke, it's true. Call and see if you don't believe me!!
