Please post when you have any success. I have a similar problem. I cannot work on my Pantera right now, but when I do (next week?) I'm keeping a checklist from you guys. Thanks so much.

It could be other things more likely to fail but it is a simple fix if it is.

It will show normal pressure as the car starts, but soon after pegs to the right and stays there. Everything runs fine otherwise. I've swapped out the pressure sender, NAPA OP6091, and it's still pegging, so I'm suspecting the gauge. Anything else I could check?
