A Cautionary Tale

John 6464,
I use copper tubing, for that very reason. Lucky for you it happened at home.
Thanks for bringing it to members attention.

Where do you find small diameter steel braided with fittings that small?
Joe

i go to a hose place close by me and get them made. but you can get everything from summit, by going to the shop i don't need to worry about ordering the wrong fitting for the gauge. they're not all the same

Is this an aftermarket oil pressure setup? I don't remember these from the factory. Could you convert to a standard electric gauge with a sending unit? That would seem like a good idea to me.

senders can go bad, and i like having a mechanical oil gauge. i use a T and keep the dash light too
