So for whoever that are doing what i did? especially when it comes with a oil pressure sensor is where i wasted most of my time. As this van was under KPA for the oil pressure and the new gauge was under PSI. so my original sensor would throw a false signal, so i T the line to put my original sensor and added the Aux "from Autometer" on the other end of the T fitting so that i can connect my PSI oil gauge so that i can finally have a good reading as previously, it was throwing a 100 PSI and the gauge would flash whenever i stop.

So USE the sensor if you are upgrading. just food for thought so that you wont waste your time like i did. \:D/
