You're going to find that the tube actuated oil pressure gauge is a
disappointment.
They respond very slowly and have considerable line drop in the 20 feet
it takes to get to the gauge.
If you must use this gauge use a 3/16" line. The 1/8" just doesn't give
good results.
Its OK to use the 1/8" line for the last three feet under your dash, but
make the rest of the line 3/16" or you'll drive yourself nuts monitoring
a auge that can lag a full minute.
You also need to bleed the line at the gauge after you install it.
