which brand are the instruments from a S? oilpressure sender
Discussion
hi,
i need your help:
i´m owning a 280Tasmin with a damaged oilpressure-sender (Stewart Warner instruments). somebody told me the senders from the S-types are compatible. it should be an electric sender, due to stewart-warner homepage it has 240ohm resistance.
as the instruments of the s-types mostly have printed TVR on the dials i cannot locate where they come from (some look like Smiths).
can you forward me some more information, please?

Try http://tvrcarparts.com/pages/default. drop them an email as they have more than is listed online 
thanx for the reply, but please dont refer to TVR-parts as i´m really not interested in deal with them anymore...had several times contact and they always wanted to rip me off.
when i asked why they charge 3 times the price which i found myself in the meanwhile, they replied:
"can you email me your suplier. we always thought our subcontractor charges us too high prices"....hahaha... they are dealing since years with spare parts and they know exactly what they do.....
so back to the technical issues:
as tvr bought the gauges somewhere it should give a possibility to find out which suplier they used.
in early tasmins they used the brand "Stewart Warner-SW" from the US, later ones used smiths instruments, but smiths oilpressure gauges work mechanical.
@allanbyrne: can you post a pic of your instrument, please? and whats stamped on the sender?
evtl. i can find out something, than.
