Question

I am intrested in knowing if the oil pressure (aint a)gauge can be converted in a 1998 sohc V6? I have read the posts associated with older explorers, but I can't seem to find a previous post concerning a newer (read 1998) model.

Does anyone have the part number handy if this gauge can be converted? Does the dash panel cluster use the same resistor mentioned in the posts for older explorers?

Any help will be most appreciated. Thanks in advance!

my 95 is the same as your 98 and i just did the swap. you gotta take the gauges out, though so if you feel comfortable then let me know i'll give you the part # and let you know what I did.
