2002 fxdwg blows the rubber plug out of the oil pressure gauge. I replaced the bag oil pressure gauge mounted on the rocker box. As soon as the bike was started, the rubber seal in the side of the gauge blew out and the clear oil ran out.r @

The Ironhead Sportys have a tendency to do this when the Gerotor Gear Set is worn. These are the thin set of drive gears in the oil pump. HD Part # 26492-75. Do you have a problem WET SUMPING? This is when the oil drains from the reservoir into the crank case if the bike sits for a period of time and when you attempt to start it pukes oil from the breather tube. If so you need to check these gears. Gerotor Gear Sets inner/outer clearance should be .000 the shaft should have a clearance of .0005 and the feed gear height in the pump should be .011. Normal operating pressure when hot should be 4 psi at idle and 10-20 psi at 3500 rpm. The pumps generally have issues before the rocker bushings.
SOURCE: 2000 Bonneville oil pressure gauge reads 120psi???
Has it always been like that, or just since the oil change?

It sounds like the check valve in the oil pump either has some trash in it or has gone bad. If it's a two wheel drive I don't remember the oil pan being that hard to get off. You can then drop the pickup and oil pump and soak them overnight in some parts cleaner. That may solve the problem, if there's trash in it. But if you're going to go through that much trouble, an oil pump shouldn't be that much I'd just replace it. So the problem doesn't come back. Good luck.

It sure will!! You answered your own question. guess i get no points for this one.
SOURCE: 2002 Pontiac oil gauge read full pressure at all
The oil sending unit has gone bad and needs to be replaced. The sensor is under the exhaust manifold and above the oil filter on the V6. Replace the oil pressure sending unit, once they fail they may start to leak oil soon. Good luck and keep me posted.
