hello guys ...

I thought what would be the more appropriate section to write this post ... I have not found one so I hope this is the right compromise.

I need to install in the din of the radio 3 instruments:
- Oil pressure gauge
- Oil temperature
- vacuum gauge


As for the oil I think I fit a sandwich between the engine block and oil flter, I have already one with a bout of pressure and temperature.
What do you say? okay as a solution or should I take other roads?
At what point do I get the wire in the car?


As for the vacuum gauge ....
Where do I pass the tube that should be the instrument?
The connection I would do it in T vacuum tube that is divided between fuel pressure regulator and controller. Right?
What values should I have vacuum?

Thanks...

I would have thought best place for the water temp sensor was the top rad pipe from the thermostat to the rad. Quite like the look of them gauges too

The correct place for the water temp sensor would be as close to the thermostat housing, hence the sensor is in this location on the standard thermostat housing for an XU10J4RS engine. Yes

I would place it in the supply hose to the heater, if you place it in the hose to the radiator it will not show the temperature of the engine during warming up when the thermostat is closed.
