Nothing on mine... I remember seeing a thread awhile back where
someone added three gauges in the back, oil pressure, temperature and
something else. I'd love more details on how that was done, would like
to do it myself one day.

However, I'm still at home debating whether or not to leave now. Oil
pressure gauge still shows 0. The dipstick gets oil way up above the F
line with the engine running, though, so I'm thinking the oil pump
should be working fine? Oil level is just a sliver below F when not
running.

Where is the oil pressure sending unit on my coach? I'd like to take
it off, clean it, put it back on, check the connections, etc... Also
if there is a foolproof way to know the oil pump is, indeed, working,
I could use that info too. This is a short weekend trip so if I can be
sure the oil pump is running, I'll leave and fix the sending unit when
I get home...
