Oil pressure gauge
« on: October 17, 2015, 12:12:41 »
I am going to put all the instruments back after a repaint of the dashboard. How should I handle the oil pressure line? The engine is out and not available at present. Can I just connect the oil line to the instrument when it is empty of oil? Or should I try to fill it with oil before connecting it to the instrument, and then put the centre instrument back?
