supplied
mechanical gauge the capillary tube needs to be fed through the dashboard hole, across the roll
hoop and through the bulkhead to the engine, make sure the tube is not kinked or able to jam in any moving
parts. Two adaptors will be supplied with the gauge, the larger steel adaptor needs to be fitted into the oil
supply in the engine block using a copper washer to seal, on the right side of the engine you will find a row
of six blanks just above where the block meets sump, any one of these blanks can be removed to fit the steel
adaptor.
Into the steel adaptor you need to fit the brass adaptor, this needs to be fitted with the flat end into the steel
adaptor, the other end of the brass adaptor has a raised centre to hold a small fibre washer which needs fitting
before connecting on the oil pressure pipe. The gauge end also needs a fibre washer fitting before connecting
the gauge.
