oil temp gauge?

[Protege_MP3_506]

I have an oil temp gauge but dont know how to install it. Anybody on here know? I would really appreciate. Also if you know how to do fuel pressure that would help too

Not sure if it fits or not. Better call, easy easy easy set up to run.

^If fits; myself and many other members have it installed.

So you can run a oil temp and pressure sensor off that?? awesome!!

Yup, I run 2 of these gauges off of it. Some will tell you that the readings aren't perfect, but they should give you a much better idea of what is going on in your engine then what your car tells you, and is a simpler install then the "perfect" way. (Coolant temp, oil temp, oil pressure)

I will realy have to get one of those whenever I decide to get some gauges!!

Cool thanks. Anyone know about the fuel pressure then?

In cabin, or in the engine bay? They are both pretty straight forward. Most gauges come as a "kit" and supply the necessary fitting to "splice" into your cars fuel supply line. Just find where the hose is located in the engine bay, and follow the manufactures guidelines from there. Cut, splice, sending unit (electric most of the time), gauge, unless your doing one in the engine bay. Then it just stays put.

Sorry if my info sounds pretty dry cut, but it really is a straight forward job, you'll do fine Oh, Teflon coating is your FRIEND on this one

Taken from a site i found most useful when i had my FD...

Then put it all together and presto! Make sure you have some GOOD hose clamps as well, you don't want that to leak at ALL!

PS. Somebody please confirm the hose diameter size? Want to make sure I'm linking the right parts for the guy
