Default Oilpressure gauge/sender

Hi

My oilpressuresender on my Escort broke.. I bought a new one from BURTON together with some new 52mm gauges. BUT untill I get these new gauges fitted I wanted to use my standard oilpressuregauge in the banana. BUT BUT BUT... it will not work properly.. It sits almost constanly at 3 bar and with heavy revs I can press it up to a little over 3 bar.. when the engine is warm it will drop a little at idle (just about 2,2 bar)

When the needle moves it is VERY slow!!!!

Can anyone tell me if it is correct that this will NOT work ??

Is my gauge busted or does the revotec sender not communicate with the Escort Cosworth bananapod oilpressure gauge??

help

i think you may need to use the original escos sender to work with the pod in the car mate

i'm sure there is a post regarding this somewhere
