Can somebody give me step by step instructions on how to wire up an oil pressure gauge..Id really appreciate it..

 

Does no body know how to do this???

 

What questions do you have specifically? Are you using an electric guage?
I have an eletric autopower oil pressure guage in my car, it wasn't 'easy' to install, but it isn't that difficult. I just T off the block where the stock oil pressure sending unit bolts in, and ran my line off of it.

 

Ok, thanks..That seems pretty simple..

 

well, go look under the car and see if you still think so.
get something better than brass tee, the port loves to stripes and crack when you putting extra weight to it.

 

Then what did you do??
I have never done this before so any help would be appreciated...

 

the oil guage sensor is located above the oil filter, so you'll need to get it from underneath the car.

size 24 deep socket used to remove the sensor, you'll need a T fitting. may honda guys use a brass tee there for oil supply. Brass Tee are just as ghetto as it gets, they sell better fitting now(after abunch of stripped and cracked port on the block).

 

So I attatch this T fitting to the hose running to the sensor right.
What would be better than the brass T fitting?

 

no, there is no hose going to the sensor, just a wire. You unbolt the stock sensor from the block. Screw in the T, using the proper fittings into the block, screw the sensor into one side of the T and re hook the wire, hook a line to the other side of the T.

 

What kind of line do I hook up to the other side?

 

I used a SS braided line, to run oil to my oil pressure sending unit. I had a rubber line on it, it lasted 2 days before it split in 1/2 and sprayed oil everywhere.

 

you could use an nylon line you can get at pepboys,kragen,autozone the line is usealy next to the manual gages or brass line but i you bend brass to much it will break in two the nylon is more flexable and user friendly

 

Cool, thanks for all the tips guys, I think I should be able to figure it all out now!
If not I will be back with more anoying questions..
