Default Autometer Boost Guage....

HI,

I just purchased an autometer boost guage to put in my car, i was wondering if anyone knew how to set it up, i know where to get power and ground as well as a vacuum line, but the directions that came with the guage are unclear, and i don't understand how to connect a vacuum T to the guage, the guage came with several fittings and a very small diameter tube


any help would be great

Thanks

Default A vacume T is one of the fittings. It allows you to splice into the vacume line of the car to run a

line to your boost guage.

I know what the vacuum T is, i just don't know how to connect the T to the guage, the guage can with various fittings and a small tube (this tube is very small in diameter, the opening is about the diameter of a toothpick)

any one else?


Thanks

Default The T goes into the vacum line .. the exposed leg of the T goes to the small dia hose

and there ought to also be fittings (usually compression fittings) that adapt the small dia hose to the fitting on the meter. HTH
