![Question](https://www.rx7club.com/images/icons/icon5.gif)
I looked around here for awhile and on google for information about the condenser for the oil pressure gauge but havent been able to find anything as far as a "generic" replacement.
I know alot of guys will just tell you to pull the sender and run a aftermarket gauge instead but i really like having the oem gauge working in spec.
Does anyone know of a suitable replacement part that doesnt cost 14+shipping like people are selling the oem ones for?

Thank you Aaron. Ill give that a try. I knew it was a capacitor just was unsure of the value. Only reason i asked was the pigtail snapped off so now oil pressure gauge reads 30 most of the time. The grey 7 still has it in and is working fine but i didnt want to pull it out to run a capacitance test cause things are corroded in there and would rather not risk having both my fc's without properly working gauges.
Ill see if i can pick one up this week locally and test it out. If not theres a site that would have it now that i know the value to look for. Its just a condenser after all, find it hard to believe in this day and age that the only option for replacement is another 20+ year old unit.
