380SL '82 The oil guage needle is lying against the little pin on my dash, it won't even jump when I turn the key...the oil is squirting on the cam lobes as I view it from the oil cap opening...so I do have some pressure. YAY! PO said it was intermittant. I was going to see if the sending unit was ok or if I have an intermittant guage. Hubby seems to think it is under aircleaner tray...Is he right? He has NO MB experience but a fair amount of non euro, expensive, super-engineered car experience. Would the sending unit truely be THAT easy to get to?
