I recently replaced my 60psi oil pressure gauge for an oem 100psi gauge. My engine has 60psi going down the road and 35 at idle according to the 60psi gauge. The needle points to the same location on the new 100psi gauge as it did on the 60. I'm thinking I need a different sending unit. I think the 100psi gauge must have come out of dump truck because that cluster has a air pressure gauge in it. Can anyone point me in the right direction for the correct sending unit?

Gauge should have been replaced using a MATCHING sender.
