1991 318is oil pressure / temperature install
« on: November 12, 2008, 09:33:49 AM »
Hi all. I searched the forum and couldn't find anything related to what I want to do. I have some nice gauges that I would like to install in my car, specifically oil pressure and oil temperature. How would I go about doing this? Where do you normally tap the M42 for oil pressure, specifically? Could I just drill and tap the oil pan for oil temperature? What about wiring? Do I just splice the power feed(s) to an ignition switched line? As far as install goes, I'm aware that an e30 m3 pillar mount setup can be modified for this purpose, so I'm all set on that end. Anyway, any help would be appreciated.
