not knowing the background reasons for not installing the
gauges, I would strongly recommend temporarily installing
the oil pressure and water temp. Lay a cloth or suitable
non-scratch material over the cowl in front of the
windshield, tape done (or otherwise hold from sliding) and
tape the gauges down onto it. Connect the gauges into the
engine and radiator. Support the hood on a block of rubber
or wood to allow the piping to exit the engine bay and you
should be good to go. This is faster and less risk than a
jury rigged plug letting go unexpectedly or worse yet,
without knowing that it has let go.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
