Good idea. I may do the same on my Rangie when the Blower and Malpassi variable fuel regulattor goes on. I hope the guage never leaks. Tony

Hi Wells
What a top idea!!!
Where did you get the gauge from??

That one came from regional bearings in orange nsw, but you can get them at most places that supply bearing etc. its only a 50mm s/steel bottom entry pressure gauge . it works a treat ,just open the bonet and you know straight away that your pump is ok , once its been in for a while you can tell when your pump is failing way before it lets you down in the scub. easy to fit ,cheap to buy .

You may want to make sure the gauge is suitable for use with petrol. If the diaphragm in it is not fuel rated, its going to leak eventually right thru the dial and out all over the engine and looking at your gauge its a std water or air type guage!
Either that or you need to use a separator diaphragm also fuel rated
BE CAREFUL PEOPLE!!! :eek:
