Does anyone know if the JEC is still selling the "improved" oil pressure garages? I cannot find any reference to them on their website.....
Does anyone have experience of these garages? I am on my third sender and getting a bit bored of changing them. There was also no consistency in reading across the 3 before failure. One showed 40psi at 3000rpm, one 30 and one 50!!!!!
Perhaps I should just ignore them????????

I fitted one and they work well but I think they had some production problems with the sender so are no longer available. I also fitted a mechanical gauge and sender and these are better in my view as they are more reliable and go up to 100psi. They are available as a kit from M&C Wilkinson but avoid the metal braided 'armoured' pipe and go with the standard plastic which is more than adequate and much simpler and safer to install.
