Title: What do I need to fit an oil pressure gauge? (Electric)
Post by: Max on May 09, 2009, 05:48:14 PM
Chaps I need to get an oil pressure gauge fitted and I have been recommended an electrical one.

I was thinking about this one:

But what else would I need to get it fitted?

Cheers

I've VDO oil pressure gauge (0-5 bar) from Audi 80 B4/Coupe with oil pressure sensor (035 919 561)

Aye, I got that Stack gauge along with a T-piece so hopefully that will be suitable!

Worth bearing in mind that the fittings on the cylinder head are M10x1, if you go with the VDO kit then they are also M10x1. You can use a brake pipe T piece because they are M10x1 also. A lot of aftermarket gauges/t pieces use Bsp threads.
