Title: oil pressure gauge
Post by: jtanguay on November 17, 2004, 04:05:26 pm

I want to install an oil pressure gauge on my 1.6L TD.   I'm guessing I need to T off from the turbo oil line somewhere?  any suggestions on a good spot?  Maybe the top of the oil filter? or is there a better spot?

thanks guys

VDO sells a double pressure sensor for the head.  One wire for the dummy light and a second wire for an electric pressure gauge.  You'll notice that VDO is written all over your instruments so it should be the best solution.
