Oil Pressure Guage

[98dsm31710]

I've been looking around for an answer but nothing has came up. I want to get an oil pressure guage since ours aren't very accurate. Looking for an electronic one that simply screws into the OFH, run the wires and call it a day.

Check out Autometer gauges

Consider remote mounting it and running a stainless line from the OFH to the sensor. Sensors tend to be killed by vibrations when they're directly mounted to the OFH.

Autometer is not always the most accurate

Elaborate on this?

+1 on remote mounting the sensor. Even my crummy glowshift sensor has held up for over a couple years.

What exactly is the question? Anyway, all electric oil pressure gauges will have a sender. However, as mentioned above, you should remote mount it. I had an SPI gauge years ago and mounted the sender directly on the oil filter housing. It rattled apart (literally) in a few months. VDO makes a good inexpensive gauge, but your options are basically limited by whatever your budget is.

I went to summit and got the Autometer Electronic oil pressure gauge and then ordered ExtremePsi remote mounting kit.

Just get both, you will thank us and yourself down the road. The sending unit that comes with the gauge will last a hell of a lot longer.

Autometer is not always the most accurate

Proof? Info? Any data?

Where's your "proof" of their reliability? Autometer mechanical, sure. Electronic, no.

They are cheap.

I wasn't aware of a remote mounting kit. That's really handy. I need to add an oil pressure gauge in the near future. My stock gauge doesn't work although it's not known for reliability anyway.

speaking of remote mointing, where do you guys but your sending units when using the remote kit? I need to get a kit but not sure where to but the sender

So much braided line
I appreciate all the response. I wasn't aware of the remote mounting kit. Thanks again guys.

The sending unit usually comes with the gauge.
