quick question for anyone that owns an autometer electric oil pressure gauge...

with the car off, but the key in the ON possition, where does your gauge read? on the 1st bar that represents 0? or on the number zero itself?

if possible, please take a pic showing where your needle rests, with the key in the ON position, but with the engine not running.

Lagos:

When my key is turned on (but the engine is still off), the needle climbs to the hash mark representing "0". Hope that helps.

awesome. mine would go to the number 0 and not the hash mark. took the gauge apart and fixed it.

i swear 10cents of crazy glue would save autometers reputation and keep the needles from moving out of place during shipping.
