Oil Pressure went to 0 at idle
Hey guys
Started the 2000 5.9 this morning and all was fine. The oil pressure showed fine so as it warmed up I went back in the house. I came out and the oil pressure showed 0 and the check gauges light was on. I shut it down and checked the oil. It was ok. There was no abnormal noise. I pulled the filled cap and all looks wet up top. Sound like a sending unit? Im reading these are pretty common and looks like Cummins is the place to buy it, Stealership is like 250! ANy help would be appreciated! Thanks!

This is a lot cheaper:

Also, check to see if you have a Cummins dealer in the area. I know I can get genuine Cummins parts cheaper from a truck (semi) dealer than the stealership.
