I'm looking at putting a oil pressure gauge in my TR8. I've decided that an electric gauge would be preferable over running a line of hot oil into the passenger compartment. I've located a Jaguar gau

I thought a 300 ohm potentiometer would work but find that a 500 ohm model is much cheaper. http://www.ebay.com/itm/500-OHM-Linear-Taper-Rotary-Potentiometer-B500-Pot-/280672832335?pt=LH_DefaultDomai

Radio Shack unfortunately doesn't carry much in the way of components any more. You're lucky if they get even close to what you want. But in this case, I think that http://www.radioshack.com/product/

Hi, Darrell, OK, the Electronics teacher in me just had to come out. I poked around on the net a little and couldn't find many details about how an electric gauge like this would work. My concern is

Hi Mark, Thanks for the reply. I believe you are correct, the gauge is just an ohm meter, with the resistance values mapped to pressure (in this case, temp gauges work the same way). The gauge has th

Hi Randall, It definitely isn't a bimetallic strip type. There appears to be two windings overlapping in a kind of inverted "V", and the needle is free to float between them. My guess is the windings

I did a little more inspection of the gauge, and checked the resistance between the power connection and the sensor, and power and ground. I see 328 ohms between power and ground on the gauge, and 17
