Check it with a mechanical gauge.Ive never trusted elec gauges>Too much to go wrong.That and just because the sender was new dosent mean its good.Ive heard that line too many times in turning wrenches for almost 30 years.It cant be bad its new.Yeah right.Seen too mant new parts that are bad.That and if the pressure checks good try a new sender they are cheap.Rocky

And, of course, don't forget our old friend, "the corroded firewall connector."
There is VERY little current in this circuit, so if the firewall / bulkhead connector is corroded/dirty, that will break the gauge connection.

I had exact same problem, it turned out to be the instrument panel voltage regulator. Wasn't able to supply enough current. All the other gauges worked fine, just the oil was flakey
