Does it have oil in it? Is it making any unusual noises?

Just replaced the oil sender a few weeks ago. No unusual noise from the engine.

Look inside valve cover and see if oil is flowing around, if it is your engine is getting lubed. Verify with a mechanics gage before you do anything else.

What brand of sender did you get? It could be bad. Check the dipstick and make sure there's enough oil in it. When's the last time the oil was changed? I would definitely double check with a mechanical gauge.
