Need Help! How to install oil pressure guage

ride_the_pony69 · 11-13-2006, 05:47 PM

I am getting a oil pressure gauge and need to know how to install it. I know I can tap it to the plug on top of the block, but does the gauge come with everything I need or do I have to get extra stuff?

Which gauge? Most come with everything you need, except the galley plug adapter. You'll need to order that (and the washer) from your friendly Subaru dealer or online parts place.

you could also use the sandwich adapter that goes where the oil filter is.

the factory plug right below the tmic would be
the safest place to install the oil pressure sensor.
