Started fitting a set of gauges i wired up the lighting circut first then the ignition wire part and tested them i noticed the oil pressure gauge shot upto max, I have'nt connected the sender yet, is the gauge faulty or is this normal

sounds like its being powered by the electrical system and not the sender itself as u have said. this doesnt happen to mine

Hey if the sender is connected and it still goes straight up to max its a dodgy earth on the sender unit.

Place a bit of wire on the body of the sender unit and connect it to the battery and then try.

I had the same problem when i moved mine on to an extender pipe.

Cheers
