'shee Posted March 5, 2006 Report Posted March 5, 2006 I just got done putting togeter my own temp gauge. I got the gauge itself from autozone. It came in a pod of 3. I decided to get those three rather than a single gauge because this one was a 1/2" smaller in diameter than the smallest one i could find. Including brass t fitting, the hose clamps, and the hose I payed about $35 installed. I have a light i need to wire in but i havent done it yet, but here is a finished product... Quote
sheefreak Posted March 5, 2006 Report Posted March 5, 2006 Thats nice, let us know how it holds up. I know a lot of people who have a hard time w/most breaking. Quote
DIRTMAN350 Posted March 7, 2006 Report Posted March 7, 2006 I did the smae thing on mine. But when you get the rpm's up the needle likes to vibrate alot. Got tired of it so i disconnected it. But all in all it worked pretty good. Quote

2twin350s Posted March 12, 2006 Report Posted March 12, 2006 they make gages that are filled with liquid.this keeps the vibration down and prolongs the gage life. Quote

Can I pour water into it and have the gauge still work as good? Quote
