DWaits Posted December 26, 2005 Share Posted December 26, 2005 Anybody know where the oil sending unit is on this engine? I am trying to hook up a temporay oil pressure gage.I have been all over this engine and can not find it anywhere, does it connect on the oil filter housing? Also, does anyone have a service book for this engine or any pictures/ drawings?Thanks!DW Quote 1948 Mack Pumper Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/632-enf510-oil-pressure/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

The oil pressure line comes off of the right side of the engine just to the right of where the governor bolts on. On my engine there are two 1/8" plugs there, I believe either is oil pressure. Hope this helps, BradP.S. How did the water pump work out?

Firemack Posted December 28, 2005 Share Posted December 28, 2005 I have the 464 little brother to the 510. The oil pressure line does connect at the governor. There is no pressure sending unit as it uses the mechanical Oil Pressure gauge.

DWaits Posted December 28, 2005 Author Share Posted December 28, 2005 Thanks Firemack and Mackaholic,Just as I was getting ready to stop for the day I found a NEW brass plug on the govener housing, I thought this might be it, with the answers from both of you I now know where it is.Brad,The water pump works just fine, I took it apart, you were right it was full of rust!I got almost two cups of rust and flakes out of it, I cleaned and inspected everything (the insides were in very good condition) and put it back togather.It turns as smooth as silk! I made some gaskets for it yesterday, got it all painted and will put it back on the engine today (after the weather warms up).I hope to get it running by Saturday! I will keep you updated on the progress.Thanks.DW Quote 1948 Mack Pumper Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/632-enf510-oil-pressure/#findComment-3013 Share on other sites More sharing options...
