Oil pressure gauge fittings

[ZenkaiRacerDsM]

Ive lost my oil pressure gauge fittings that it came with. Its a mechanical Autometer. Ive got the steel braided line for it but where can I buy the fittings it came with? I couldnt find them on the autometer site. Or if anyone knows the size and type of fitting it is that would be great. Thanks.

Tognotti's.

Never heard of it. Could you elaborate?

Your gauge didnt come with steel braided line did it? I thought all the autometers used that nylon crap?

What size is the steel braided line?

summit racing or just go to your local Home Depot or Lowes...

Nah it did come with the nylon. I wasnt about to run that to the interior of my car though. So I bought the steel braided line. I think the line has -4 AN female fittings on each end. And I believe I need a -4 AN to 3/8 NPT fitting to connect it to one of the free oil filter housing ports.

You're in Sac and haven't heard of Tognotti's? Egad.

Or you could just go to jegs or summit. They have them.

Also, sorry to jack the thread, but for the Greddy 60mm P+W gauges, what size fitting is needed to match the oil pressure sender to the line that comes with the gauge? Thanks.

And does it matter if it's a 1g or 2g? Thanks.

they use that nylon stuff in shops with compressed air around 150 psi, and it holds up. 70 psi of oil is fine running through them.


of course i say that now.. i know ill be bitching about it a few months down the line.
