Oil Pressure Gauge

[MrsLightning]

I am ready to hook up my oil pressure gauge (white Phantom gauge already installed inside the truck). Does anyone know where the best place is to hook it to? I would like the factory gauge to continue to work too.

You can put a brass close pipe nipple with a tee in the stock sending unit location (behind the power steering pump) and plumb the new sending unit up to it too. You may need a reducer depending on the compatibility of the thread sizes.

If I remember right, it's a 1/4" NPT fitting in the block, but verify that by removing the stock sending unit first.

Also, use liquid teflon pipe dope for sealing the threads and not teflon tape.

Later!
