Replaced my oil pressure sender today. The front panel gauge was reading about 10 psi less than the mechanical gauge that I have teed in next to the sender. I recently replaced the gauge but the problem stayed. Replaced the sender and now both gauges read the same.

Changed the oil while I had it hot after testing. Things went great right up until the point where I decided to pour one more glug of oil into my funnel... not realizing the bottom had escaped the oil fill hole. Well, that battery terminal is never going to rust! 🤬🙄

Good price from Vehicle Controls, but damn, UPS ground shipping cost as much as the gauge itself...
