    Level Sender Etc

    My oil level gauge only goes up when u put the ignition on second turn (bofore start!) and leave it for a cupla secs, then level displays. the secodn u turn key further to start the engine it goes down again. i thought its sposed to stay up for a minute or so after the engine is started?! its not a problem really its just confused me!!

    mine drops off straight away, im sure it does........phase 1

    even if the gauge was still taking a reading, as soon as its started oils gettin pumped around to the level on the gauge would drop anyway
