oil sender position, up or down?

[rick]

hi, due to space limitations i"ll have to mount my oil sender faced up (connection will be down), so if there is any air left in the hose/pipe it can not escape
is this a problem or will the air escamp anyway
(will the air be locked up inside the sender and because of this will it give a wrong signal?)
thanks,rick

Should not be an issue, but if your concerned, loosen the unit a couple of turns when you start or prime the system for the first time until you get a couple of drops of oil out at the fitting to bleed it.

Will make absolutely no difference to the reading whether there is air in the line or not.
