For the record. I have traced the cause of my rising oil pressure problem
=2C and I though a feedback could be usefull.

Moisture had found it's way into the connection at the sender end. I have b
een flying through some wet stuff recently. There was an indication of oxid
ation which would not have helped.
Once cleaned up. and sealed=2C the pressure gauge returned normal reading.

My thanks to Duncan=2C Ivor=2C and Roger who responded and got me thinking 
in the right direction.

My 912s Rotax has performed very reliably for over 400 hours=2C but I am be
ginning to notice that the oil pressure is rising. The pressure normally si
ts at 4 bar=2C but it is now rising to 6 bar in flight=2C and drops back on
 idling. Is this common=2C or is indicative of an impending problem? Bryan
