    Oil Pressure gauge?

    Hi,

    I am wanting to fit an electrical Oil Pressure Gauge to my 2006 TD5 Defender.

    What sort of pressure would I need to fit?

    Some gauges advertised go up to 80psi, some 100psi and some are 150psi.

    I have looked at SAAS, Speco and VDO Oil Pressure gauges, I am probably leaning more to the VDO gauge at the moment as I personally think they are pretty good when it comes to the quality of them.

    Any advice or opinions much appreciated.

    Cheers, Col.

    Col,
    VDO is a good brand, I would go for the 80 psi gauge max pressure on the relief valve is 58 psi

    And for the sender use one of these from eBay. I've got one on my Madman EMS. Search for oil pressure sender.

    I would expect the sender to be included with the gauge.
    But where have people been fitting oilpresssure senders to td5 motors.
