Just been looking at this today as it has turned up. Read the instructions and seems all straight forward except what part of the engine do i mount the nylon tubing from the gauge?

Cheers

hayesey

usually connect the pressure gauge up to a t-piece that you fit into the oil pressure sensor hole in the head (the one that doesnt already have a t-piece in it for the charger oil supply).

Jezza-7

Is the t-piece a part that you have to buy separtly?



hayesey

I guess so if there isn't one included.

Jezza-7

No it was just the gauge, few bits for pipe and nylon piping.

So i have to get a t-piece of some sort and put it into where the oil pressure sender goes.

Just wondering has anyone done this before?

sorry to but in on your post mate, but i have just fitted an oil pressure gauge to my g, its a stack one and i got a t pice with mine but came in a separate box,

and hayesay i plumed mine in to the switch with the charger feed on have i done it wrong shuld it be in the other switch just next to it, there would be more room the way you say because my way the boost return is kinda in the way

Jezza-7

Was it a mechanical oil pressure gauge? I never got one with mine.
