I have been very happy with my full-sweep electric fuel pressure gauge. Works like a champ and is very accurate (and was quite expensive).

The short sweep oil pressure gauge I have is a piece of crap though. The needle sticks all the time.

i had a auto meter fuel pressure gauge up on my rail, anyways damn thing went out the first time. It was reading 30 psi ohh crap. So i get under there and ajust my fpr to 43 psi. Ok my cars running like ****. So i check it again, 39 psi?? So i set it again. Then its reading 70 psi when i get home so i adjust it down, The gauge was screwed up. I was getting tickkkkkkkkkkkked off . Its gone twice in the last year. Crappy gauge but its 19.99 and free waranty, i live right by autometer.

I have noticed a 1-1.5 psi diff in what my Autometer boost gauge reads VS datalogging the MAP. Both are plumbed in the same location (not the same nipple, but both on the IM)

The Autometer reads high.

i fail to see what you are suing for? no dammage was incurred. unfortunately with autometer's output there will be bad apples in the basket. tell them what happened and try to get a replacement. rofl... @ lawsuit.

I dunno, I've never had a problem with my Autometer. However one time I bought a used Tach at a dirt cheap price. I tried to hook it up with no instructions and couldnt' get it to work. Figured the dude sold me a bad one so I sent it back to Autometer for repair with a note saying "does not work". After 2 wks, they sent me a brand new one @ no charge. Even with that I couldn't get it to work, come to find out my MSD wasn't working..

So Autometer got my

I bought a autometer boost guage for my Talon and I am glad I did.... so I DONT run them on my Honda. The boost guage sticks and is real jerky.. garbage. I am definately running a better quality guage with my Honda..
