Oil Pressure Sending Unit

Oil Pressure Sending Unit
I've got a problem with my fuel pump fuse blowing intermittently. It has to be a short. I've traced the problem down to being between the power side of the fuel pump relay and the bulkhead at the back of the car above the axle. Im suspicious that the side of the power wire taht goes down to the oil pressure sending unit is getting intermittently shorted out on something, blowing the fuse. I read a few other accounts online of this happening.
I havea 92, so I have the 3 wire oil pressure sending unit. if I remove the gray/tan wire going from the relay to the OPSU, does that mean the OPSU isnt getting power to send a signal to the gauge?
Basically, does anyone know what the 3 wires in the OPSU plug do?
This didnt help much, but neither does this...
But if Im intepreting it right, if I cut that tan wire going to it, the OPSU should still send a signal to the gauge cluster, right?
For the record, every other part of the fuel pump circuit taht I've looked at looks fine. The fuses only stopped blowing every few minutes after I started digging around in the harness around the OPSU. I havent found any blatant issues in it, but it seems to have "cured" itself for now, but I dont trust it to not strand me somewhere again.

Re: Oil Pressure Sending Unit
Tan is signal wire for gauge (C100, E5).

post #1, "stock fuel control" and "simplified fuel control", it is a reference for lsx/ltx swaps but will give you an idea of what you are working with.

The C100 connector seems like a nightmare. I havent had any further issues from it, but if more crop up I'm going to have to dive into it.
