Looking for some options on installing an oil pressure and coolant temp gauge. Any advice or photos would be greatly appreciated, I have a tach so I am somewhat limited on space in the dash area. Anyone found any good mounting locations???

 

dont know where to put one but the web site www.iequus.com has very little gauges that look sweet.

 

I also have a tach mounted in my plastic dash. I also have a 1 3/4" oil pressure gauge & a 1 3/4"" water temp gauge. I relocated my key switch out of the dash. I install a tee at the oil pressure oil senser for the oil pressure gauge & install a tee at the radiator hose for water temp gauge. I'll try to get some pictures up tomarrow.

 

Do you have any pictures of the dash mounted gauges?

 

Yes, I'm redoing them. They didn't come out good so I'm taking new one's tonight & will have them posted in the mourning. I will make sure to get the dash.

 

Check my pics page. One of the cleanest ways ive found to install the gauges.

 

dsjobber nice job on the blinb bling!

 

my oil pressure gauge is in the same place that dsjobber has his. just used one of those chrome bezels and drilled the dash mount bar. and inserted 3/8" well nuts. the guage I used has a switch on it. so you can just run the oil pressure circuit to the gauge. turns the light on at about 3-5 lbs oil pressure. then just remove your pressure sensor and use a 1/8" pipe threaded fitting for the line. you also will want to bleed the new line before you conect it to the gauge. I think its called a murphy switch gauge. did this mod when the sensor crapped out.

nice combination of items behind dsjobbers quad. turkey frier, gas cans,propane bottle, and of course the extinguisher.

 

Dash pics are up.

 

Ive added pictures, there like countryjoe's.
