1. low oil
2. probably have a electronic oil pressure sensor, senor can fail. mechanical gauges have a oil line running to the back of the gauge and don't fail unless the oil line is cut, and that would leak lots of oil fast, running your engine out of oil.
3. short in wireing
If you mean hunting at idle, the problem is caused by the idle speed being set too high or the idle switch is not properly adjusted. When the throttle is closed as indicated by the idle switch the fuel is cut off by the fuel cut solenoid until the engine speed drops below a preset speed. If the engine speed is higher than that speed and the idle switch is closed there is no fuel for the engine, thus the engine speed drops. When it drops below the preset speed the fuel is turned on and the engine speed goes back up.
Engine bounce is a phenomenon where the engine speed rises rapidly and then drops back down while the vehicle is idling. This can be caused by issues with the fuel system, ignition system, or engine timing. It can lead to rough idling and poor engine performance.
Engine back pressure is a common ailment in faulty engines. It is when the exhaust sends the power to the very back of the vehicle, instead of through its engine.
Check the engine oil level, it may be low.
Any engine needs back pressure to run efficiently. That is what the mufflers do, they create back pressure. So, by removing the muffler(s), you have stopped the back pressure, which in turn causes the engine not to run efficiently.
The oil pressure sensor is located on the back of the engine, next to the distributor.The oil pressure sensor is located on the back of the engine, next to the distributor.
How come my speed odometer just drops and wont work and if i pound on the dash sometimes it will come back..
The well water pressure drops when water is being used faster than it can be replenished. Once the water level in the well has a chance to recover, the pressure will come back.
The oil pressure sensor on a gas engine is on the back of the block next to the distributor.The oil pressure sensor on a gas engine is on the back of the block next to the distributor.
It is on the back of the block to the right of the oil pressure sending unit, if you are looking from the front of the engine to the back of the engine.
It was a piston engined single wing aircraft. You start the engine, taxi to runway, accelarate engine, when you get to take-off speed you pull stick back, air pressure over the wing lifts it, it flies -
