I would advise starting with a new $10.00 sending unit and report back. These units do odd things as they age. GL

Agreed I would even install an aftermarket oil pressure gauge.

We try to stick to one topic per thread.

The broken bolt problem is exceedingly common and you can do a search and find lots of answers. I would start searching in the "exhaust" forum. GL
