79 oil pressure sending unit
I've tried several different sending units and they all seem to be junk to me. The current one just stays pegged 99% of the time. Every once in a while it will actually read. Has anyone found a specific one that seems to work like it's supposed to?

There's been more than one thread on this just in the last year. Everyone is having issues with replacement oil pressure sending units.
Myself included. The one I have in now I purchased from Zip. But it came in a NAPA box. It reads about 20 lbs high. But reads. I tried a standard motor products sender, it seemed to work perfectly, for about a month. I forget the third, it was junk from day one.
Really a roll of the dice to get a good one.
If you find one, and there is actually more than one.
Let us all know!
