are you talking oil or water for the sender on the 2.1L? I know many have done the duel on oil pressure, but I'm trying to get an accurate water temp too. thanks for the info. I contacted those guys (egauges) before and they referred me to VDO who although was very nice in their attempt to help, could not offer me the proper solutions! When I told VDO I wanted a sender that would work with their aftermarket gauge and my dash they asked what my dash gauge (current factory) model was. I could not find the model inside nor could anyone on the list help. I try egauges.com again. A friend (porsche guy and engineer) said all German cars work on the same ohm ranger for water and oil temp senders. I doubt he is correct as VDO sent me a guide with about 20 different range specs of their products for 20 auto applications. Someone on this list has done this in the last 10 years, I know it! Where are you with specific answers!?!? Shawn On 7/23/06, Bob Stevens <mtbiker62@hotmail.com> wrote: > > Eguages.com <http://eguages.com/> will know exactly what you need.
