from the picture it seems as though you're installing:
- RB gauge pod
- 3 gauges in pod
- Oil adapter with sending units
- Coolant adapter with sending unit
- Vent Pod Gaguge
- Additional gauge


This is probably better done tomorrow since it's not exactly a quick job. Good luck, hopefully someone in your area can help. If you need help with grounding / running some of those wires check out my sticky thread

^Thanks jedi....

The gauges are:

oil temp
oil pressure
water temp
volt

I have a boost for when i go turbo, but i want to install these for now before DGRR.


If I had a shop do how much do you guys think they would charge???

def we could do it together, but hopefully some one can come by to help with the gauges. This will be a 1st for me. I could return the favor, I have a uncle with a body shop, and i can do general mechanic work...

You're probably going to have to remove the oil temp sensor from the fitting until after you tighten the filter bolt on. It won't turn with the temp sensor installed. At least it didn't on mine.

chris: what were the gauges doing?
where were they grounded?
Could it be a bad sending unit?

the guages all shared ground and power so they all powered up just fine.....the oil temp and water temp didnt work but the oil pressure did.....the senders looked fine and i tested them by grounding each individually and nothing so it wasnt the sender being wrapped in too much teflon......all the wires were brand new.....only assumption left was bad guage or bad sender....either way he needs 2 new guages
