    oil pressure gauge!

    hiya mate i personally would plumb for a capillary gauge as they are more accurate than an electric one , as for fitting it the normal way is to remove the oil pressure switch and screw in a tee piece which will take the pipe to your gauge and also allow you to retain the switch for your oil...
