    Borrow - Oil pressure test gauge

    Has anyone got a half decent oil pressure test gauge I could borrow?

    Want to test what the old 7A is actually producing, the low pressure warning side of my gauge sender packed up recently giving false warnings so disconnected it - its always read reasonably low on oil pressure, i.e 3.8-4.0 bar max and 1.0-1.5 bar at idle.
    Want to test it properly to see if its the sender or if its tired pump & bearings as I suspect. Something I could fit into the 1.8bar sender hole would be ace if anyone has something suitable i could borrow / hire?

    Cheers guys

    Mine has recently packed up too, once fully warm it fails to register anything below 2bar and starts the autocheck warning. Never though of just disconnecting it, nice one
