Nah, I didn't fark it up, but didn't know the risk well enough when I deliberately saved the money on manual vs electric. Probably got it right through no fault of my own, though haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get an electronic gauge for your oil and save the hassle of not only the install but any potential disaster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would you guys happen to know ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did it a while ago and used this one:https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com.au%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F301858483365This assumes your gauge fitting is 1/8, like the oil pressure sender for my gauge was. I agree with some of the above though - a free mechanical gauge isn't great value if something fails and leaks in the cabin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you guys thinks it’s to far up the dump ? Or should be fine their.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's some instructions to help you decide for yourself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The two markings after the standard one I just thought that would be to far but if that’s what they recommend then I guess that’s right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
