Parts list for mechanical fuel pressure gauge on 2000 24V?
Does anyone have a list of all the parts needed to install a mechanical gauge on a 2000 24V? I'm told I'll need a banjo bolt and needle valve and all this other stuff that I'm not sure where to find.
thanks
Mark

I hope you aren't putting it inside your truck,especially if it is an ISSPRO. I have had 3 lose the seal pressure & leak all over my dash & floor & put me temporarily on the side of the road. I like the electric Westach mounted on the fenderwell, with a line running straight to the VP44 via modified fuel lines.

I've had great experience with my ISSPRO and horrible experience with electrical. All of my buddy's run ISSPRO and have for a long time and haven't had any problems. I ran a Dakota Digital fuel pressure with a VDO ($$$) sender and it died on me twice and once cost me a pump cause I thought it was the pump going out. I've got mine plumbed straight into the cab with nothing seperating it from the engine except a needle valve. After having the headaches I've had with electrical gauges (my aftermarket electrical oil pressure gauge is on the fritz) I'll never use them again.

i'm with you big blue, i believe that mechanical is the way to go. i've only been running my mechanical ISSPRO for a couple of months now but no problems yet. all i gotta say is, i don't like electrical guages-mechanical i love them, they're just so true, i guess you could say, they go straight to whatever you monitoring and it's the way to go IMO. and for the mechanical fuel pressure guages, i think running fuel in cab is the only way to go, to h@## with that isolator jazz, they always fail on us, and they're so darn expensive. and running fuel in the cab is the risk you take and as long as you have a shut off source, i believe it's ok, there's my 2cents and VIPERBLUELX i'd say just follow the instructions on the link i provided you and be done with it
