Does anyone know where you can find these gauges? gaffrig has discontuined them, I think I have a faulty oil pressure gauge. The needle jumps from 80 to 60 to 20 to 40 to 60, 40, 20, 0 then alarms! Only at idle, only on the water. I'm going to shoot a video of this when I go out again.

I have replaced the sender with a new one from gaffrig. Doesn't the sender take it ground right off the motor? When I took the older one off (which looked pretty new like someone before me has tried this) it had looked like they had put silcone on the threads....but the new sender did the same thing. I have just did an oil change with new filter we shall see once I'm out on the water because I cannot create this problem while she's on the trailer. For 3 years my solution has been after the alarms go off shut down reset the motor start it up and leave it in neutral to raise the rpm's to keep the pressure up while getting out of the bay. Once the 5 mile and hour bouy is past she good to go!

Obviously I dont have a fountain but this might give you an idea of what vinyl can look like..Its a great way to update a dash without spending an arm and a leg. I only spent about $75 having this vinyl designed, printed and shipped.
