My oil guage has been acting up lately, and finally, it is just sittng at zero, with no movement. The oil pump is still working, as when I take the oil cap off, I can see oil moving and slapping around. Does anybody know where the oil guage sending unit hooks up to and where? Could it be a bad connection or should I just buy a new one? Thanks for the help!

It's in the wheel well near the battery. They had a problem with voltage drop, hence the location right near the battery. I would change your battery first. That might solve the oil pressure issue.

Also, the blinker fluid reservoir should be topped off at this time. Easy access during the other maintenance items.

Give the muffler bearings a squirt too. I know, you just wanted to fix the gauge. But next thing you know the **** light on the dash will start blinking and you'll be asking about that too.
