Mechanical. Electrical are prone to fail. 0-30 is the best range. Leave the isolator in the box.

I take it, It would be aright to mount the mechanical guage inside the cab since it's diesel fuel. I also run into onther problem. My guages are Auto Meter sportcomp. I can only get a 1 to 15 or 1 to100 psi guage. Would it be alright to max the guage out?

thanks

When running the 0-15 auto meter it was pegged almost all the time. Wasn't a problem until I upped the fp to 50, then I had to replace the guage with a 0-100. If you look for a water guage you can find an autometer in different ranges.
