rdsk8ter Posted February 1, 2007 Author Share Posted February 1, 2007 im thinking about putting the fuel pressure gauge here what do you all think? under the cowl angled at the driver Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
z-ya Posted February 2, 2007 Share Posted February 2, 2007 Good idea on the fuel pressure gauge as you can just run some 1/4" tubing to a mechanical gauge. The electronic gauges are more expensive and require wiring. I made a test tube for my mechanical gauge so I could extend it for viewing when debugging a problem. I would just not latch the hood all the way down. You are basically doing the same thing, but it can always stay there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
