[T3] Questions concerning fuel injection parts

Hello to everyone here. I have been reading postings, but this is the first 
time I have posted. Hope I'm not asking stuff previously answered.

I have checked the resistances of things in my fuel injection system and 
don't know what to make of the following:

1) the 2.5K TS is reading around 3.9. Should I replace it? Bentley seems to 
say that more resistance than spec is ok. ("Sensor is faulty only if reading 
is infinity or 0")

2) the 300 ohm one is reading at over 600. From what I hear, this sensor 
doesn't do that much, and if it is out of spec, bad fuel economy will be the 
only result (not that I really want that, either). Replace?

3) I opened up the pressure sensor and found that there is a lot of oil in 
it. Is motor oil used as a lube in pressure sensors? I overfilled my air 
cleaner a little and think that might have been the result.

4) Also, I found that the two coils in the pressure sensor were reading 
322/88 instead of 350/90. I would replace without hesistation except that 
the previous owner gave me some spare parts he had switched out and I found 
that another pressure sensor gave me the same exact numbers.
Are those readings acceptable?

Thanks for your help, and if you're ever near Wash, DC, drop me a line.
