orm09 Posted September 21, 2009 Share Posted September 21, 2009 Hi,how do you connect the oil pressure gauge with a redtop in a manta? there is only one wire from the redtop loom but two on the manta.Also the temp gauge is'nt working but the fuel gauge and volt meter are.Could this be down to voltage regulator? Any help would be much appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rutts Posted September 21, 2009 Share Posted September 21, 2009 put the oil sender unit from manta engine into red top and connect as usual. temp wire is solid blue coming from the manta loom that has coil and heater wires in it just put it on the red top sender on thermostat housing just under the ecu temp sender unit.

MrCarlos Posted September 22, 2009 Share Posted September 22, 2009 are the thread sizes the same on the sender units andy? sure i've tried to put the manta sender in a red top before and they were different? Carl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
orm09 Posted September 22, 2009 Author Share Posted September 22, 2009 I think I've connected the temp gauge the way you said unless there's another solid blue.I'll try to get a manta sender for the oil and see if it fits.Thanks for the help:thumbup Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andyc Posted September 22, 2009 Share Posted September 22, 2009 A CIH sender has a different thread but the XE and the 1.8 should have the same thread as the oil pump is more or less the same on both engines Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
