I have apparently blown up the oil pressure gauge in my truck after installing an engine with a sender for an idiot light.

What exactly do I need to replace? The whole instrument cluster or just the pressure gauge unit? Can I repair whatever is damaged?

How big a job is it to replace the gauge? Does it involve a major disassembly of the dash?

Jason,

Thanks for the links on adding a separate gauge. Though I may do this, I am interested in knowing how to replace the gauge in the stock IP cluster that I blew. Any insight into this repair?

 

I think your only option is replacing the whole cluster with oone from a junk yard. (Do you know if its the sender or the gage yet?)

 

It's the gauge. I blew it up when I replaced the engine and kept the idiot light sender instead of swapping in the original gauge sender. I was hoping to minimize the cost and time of fixing the gauge; maybe even by repairing the gauge. Can that be done?
