I'm looking at getting an oil temp/pressure gauge, but I wondered what sort of electrical connections were on the back of these gauges.

Does anyone have the installation notes for this? if so, do you have access to a scanner or fax?

One other thing; is the bezel removable?

Stefan

 

I am actually away to sell my dual SPA's that have never even been out of their box!

PM or email me for the details!

YHM.

Stefan

 

ne1 else? Just need to check installation notes before I go ordering some spare electrical cable, connectors, etc..

Stefan

 

The bezel is removable but be careful as it's all to easy to break the glass.... <says from experience..>

Alan

 

Can show you install manual if you're anywhere near Star on Sunday?

Alan

 

Thanks Alan. Don't think I'll be anywhere near Glenrothes on Sunday though Guess you don't have a scanner?

Cheers,

Stefan

 

Will try and take a piccy of wiring sometime tomorrow.
I'm N/S just now.

Jim

Did you get my mail?

Alan

 

Alan,

mail received and responded to

James

 

Thanks Alan

Just ordered mine direct from SPA. If you manage to scan them today, then I'll get the stuff ordered today/tomorrow. If not, my gauge should be with me by Friday.

Stefan

 

Received your diagram Alan. Thanks very much

 

You'll be pleased you bought them Stefan.

I got mine a couple of weeks back and well impressed with them

Alan

 

Yeah, they look the dogs danglies

Just went for Oil Temp/Pressure to go along with my mechanical boost gauge.

I've been told they come with all the cables and senders, but are they threaded for the Scoob or did you need to buy any adapters to fit the senders?

Stefan

 

Stefan

You will need the adapter for the temp probe if you are going into the bung above No3 cylinder, Oil pressure sender will fit straight on AFAIK to the hole which currently is used for the low pressure switch. if you still want to retain the oil low pressure, you will need some sort of T piece.

Hope that helps

Paul

 

Yes, I was going to use the one above #3. Any ideas where you get an adapter from?

IIRC, the temp probe goes in under the alternator.

Stefan

 

I got my adapter from ScoobyMania, that is for the oil way above No3 cylinder, temp prode is 1/8 NPT, Pressure is under the alternator, this is 1/8 NPT too but according to SPA (instruction manual) 1/8 BSP will fit. This has also been confirmed on here, can't find the thread though.

I have the gauges but haven't yet had a chance to fit so I am only telling you the information I have collected to do the fit myself.

Paul

 

Thanks Paul, I appreciate your help.

 

Paul/Alan,

Where did you get the adapter for your temp probe? Do you know what thread is on the Scooby for the point above #3?

Stefan

 

Hello

see here for part number and...
see here for thread size.

Hope this helps

Alan

 

Thanks again Alan. I did a search, but never found those. Looks like I need to refine my search skills a bit

Stefan

 

No problem

BTW I fitted an adapter to the original pressure sender point and 'T'd off it to fit the new sender and original pressure sender together in the original place between alternator and power steering header tank.

Had some spare fittings which i'd had for years kicking about, so used them. Had a look a wee while ago but nothing suitable left to help you out. Sorry

You don't really need the original sender anyway,cause the gauge can be set to flash up any low oil pressure level you want.
