Oil Sender question
I just bought an 88 f250 with a 460 in it. Test drive went well, needs some work but it seemed fine. Driving it later I realized that the oil gauge moves around a lot considering it's supposed to be an on/off switch. It will dip and show no oil pressure although there is no valve chatter or noise, so I'm certain that it still has pressure. When looking up the oil sender location to inspect wiring, I saw two separate locations, center on the rear of the engine by the intake manifold and by the oil filter, which is it?
