Laurence,

I did not buy the gauge and sender; I am not pleased with the gauge
accuracy. 80PSI is too much; I would prefer a 50PSI gauge. The westy engine
idle between 5 and 10PSI, difficult to read on an 80PSI gauge. Even at 3000
RPM the pressure should be around 29 -35 PSI, again on a 80PSI gauge the
margin of error is big.

Still looking for a 50PSI gauge.
