    M109 oil pressure gauge not working

    I purchased a 1967 M109 this weekend with a Continental multi-fuel with 172 hours on the meter overhauled back in 1990. After 2 days of wrenching and head-scratching and searching threads I got it running. The motor sounds good, but the oil pressure gauge does not come off the low peg. I...
