I just lost a motor when it leaned out due to a fuel blockage. I am looking to install fuel pressure gauges at the helm so I can monitor the pressure when driving. I don't want a repeat preformance. I want to use electric gauges rather than mechanical for obvious reasons. I can't seem to find any that are reasonable. The only setup I found was over $500 for two gauges. Any suggestions? This is for my cruiser not my Concept.

Gauges are great but depending on where the blockage was why not run low pressure cut out switchs? Cheap and easy. Sometimes I do not look at gauges all the time!!!! Like running WOT .

PS is right. I have fuel pressure gauges and rarely look at them over 60 mph. Normal cruise of 50 @ 3000 rpm, no problem. Anything over 60 where I boat , you have to be real sharp to avoid debris .
BTW , mine a Faria electrics and they were well below $500 , and are guaranteed as long as you own the boat

You can buy them at cpperformance.com for some $80 a piece including sender

Thanks guys. This is only for my cruiser not my performance boat. It tops out at a blinding 25 mph. Plenty of time to look at gauges. I also want a gauge rather than a shut off or buzzer as I am still not sure that I have fixed the problem and want to use the pressure gauge to diagnose the problem, or lack of it. I have found a pair electric Gaffrig gauges and senders for around $170. I just want to monitor the new motor to make sure that the pressure is ok and hopefully not melt down more pistons.
