Fuel Pressure Gauge

[platinum01]

Ok well I finally got the go ahead to buy 3 more gauges. Trying to figure out what I want to put under the overhead console. I am looking at Fuel Pressure for one of them. What is the difference between Electrical and Mechanical Fuel Pressure Gauges? What is the best one to use?

You only want electrical gauges... Do you want 100 psi fuel in your cab??? How about 35PSI of oil pressure???

I would go fuel pressure, oil pressure, and water temp.

Thanks Joe I knew that you would be along to answer this post. So I want to go with Electric. I would like to have the gauges posted in the cab. Is that a bad idea? Those were the 3 that I have been looking at. Is it safe to have that mounted in the cab?

sure, so long as they are electric, nothing comes in to the cab other then wire.

Cool that will work. Thanks Joe for the help. Guess that is why you are called the Gauge Whore. Were did you buy your gauges? I have been looking at Autometer. Any other good ones?

Joe, what about the Isspro mechanical gauge with the pressure isolator? That's what I'm installing in mine since they don't have an electric black face gauge.

I have Isspro gauges... But your right, they dont have a electric gauge yet. I am running a proto type gauge right now and it works great. If you have to have a mech gauge then yes use the iso...
