Just got it firing!
Hi all, after suffering a recent gasket failure in the bottom end which lead to low oil pressure at idle (see attached photo), which put a bit of a dampener on a weekend ride to Sunshine Coast recently. I decided I wanted to keep an eye on the old girls BP from now on.. (oil pressure). Had a bit of a look around and found this little SAAS gauge which looks the part with white background and red needle and it blends into the dash almost as if it was there from new. The real plus to the whole project was that this SAAS gauge has 3 different back light colour options via the push button, one of which was a perfect match to the Guzzi red backlight for the rest of the dash. So with a bit of 3mm x 10mm aluminium flat bar work using a mandrel (spray paint can!) and some grunting and groaning, it came up a treat. Just got to wait for the dual aluminium manifold to turn up from UK now so I can mount the sender (1/8 NPT) and the existing (10mm x 1mm) Guzzi pressure switch into the existing 12mm x 1.5mm block oil hole. It turned up this afternoon, so can't wait to get it connected and wired in to see what pressure it actually runs at (Hot & Cold , idle and redline!)
Keep you posted!
Cheers Paul.
