I just came back from a Nissan dealer who has a beautiful black 92 300E with a near perfect body with a new black paint job and the interior is way above average. Priced at $5000.00 I thought it was worth taking for a drive. The oil pressure came up and I took off, turned on the AC, it worked, so did the cruise and radio and then I looked at the oil pressure it was down below 1 bar, and later zero. The salesman was with me and didn't seem to care, said it was probably the sender. The temp didn't go up and oil level was at spec. Do the oil pressure sending units tend to fail? The car rode fine except it was real sensitive to any movement of the steering wheel, like it was amplified. I've never experienced that before, any ideas? Oh the car has 170,000 mi.
