Oil Pressure Guage 11 years 10 months ago #56100

Any info please re fitting an oil pressure guage to a TF. Any recommendations for electric or oil pressure fed and any info on fitting either would be welcome.
Thanks very much

Have you checked the how to's and downloads section? The latter has some manuals for download. You would have to take a look. They're free for members. There's some electrical manuals for download under the community tab up above. Hopefully that might help until someone has a more comprehensive answer for you.

If you wanted to fit one to a Cortina Gt I could talk you thru the process and give you a parts list from memory.....
However, not much help!

In principle it involves either replacing the pressure switch with a transducer or installing a T adaptor so you keep the light and have a guage also. I would steer clear of a pressure line type as the impulse line would have a long tortuous path, and if it splits you get sprayed with hot oil! A piezzo transducer and suitable gauge is best option.

How about finding a firm that specialises in prepping K series for competition: Demon Tweeks or similar. Once you have the correct transducer it would be a simple wiring and fit,ting job.

Apologies if I have stated the obvious - I'm sure you've already worked this out.
It will be all right in the end. If it isn't all right yet, then it is not yet the end..
