RE: autometer help

You will need to connect to a switched power, and ground. Each gauge will have another power and ground for lighting, and you will need to install the sending unit wiring. Dont use factory, at least mine were not good enough to use. I recommend you find the adapter that goes in place of the oil filter, and the filter screws into that. You can connect oil temp there. I think you can connect oil pressure as well, I need to find that part number again. I need one too for the oil temp. Make sure you have a good ground, or you will get false readings, I had to learn the hard way!
