Looking for suggestions on what type of pressure gauge I should purchase to keep tabs on my lift pump.

...thanks....gary

 

I have isspro gages in my truck and really like them. No problems so far . Had a queation at installation and isspro service was fantastic. Got my gages and pillar mount at Geno's. They have good service also, this means a lot to me.

 

Isspro's too!

 

I bought the Quadzilla Commander but it was a piece of junk. I then went with the Edge Juice with Attitude. Great quality and customer service. Got all the gauges you could want and some awesome performance to boot! I run my Attitude displaying Boost/Fuel Pressure/Pyro/Trans Temp for the daily drive. It also gives you some great alerts, customizable defueling points, performance measures (0-60l, 1/4 mile times), etc....

 

Thanks for the posts guys.

Isspro EV series gets my vote. That or DiPricol Optix (which are quite a bit more $$)

 

Anyone have any experience with the electronic transducer type gage? The ones with the electric wire?

Will most of these gages gages have needed items to hook the gage up?

thanks....gary

 

I vote dipricol optix.

 

Call me old fashioned but I have a stewart warner mechanical guage and yes I run the fuel inside the cab with out an isolater. I have a needle valve installed at the pump to reduce pulsation and cut off the fuel in the event of a leak. I have a buddy that has had several different electric models and ended up going to a mechanical after several problems. He runs an isolater though.

 

Thats roughly what I run too. Mines a vulcan...got the test kit for like 50 bucks off their site and there's about 6 feet of fuel line so I ran it into the cab under the dash. Had it there a year and a half or more and never had a problem. Just recently the truck was runnin' rough and looked and my pressure was 0! Changed the lift pump in my buddy's driveway.Thank you fp gauge for saving me $1200+ on a vp!

 

Glowshift electric gauges work well and are all on sale right now. But you have to run a isolator or snubber with any electric sender (seen a lot of senders die from pulses from the vp44). But once I save up some money I'm going to buy a Autometer or Isspro fuel gauge that I know will last a long long time, not 2-4 years (2 if you got a quality electric or 4 if you're lucky). If you use a isolator and notice fluctuation in the gauge anyway, your gauge isn't connected correctly (loose wire) or your gauge is bad.

 

My self i am not a fan of fuel pressure gauges because of the fact that there is fuel getting ran in to your cab. For safety i run the BD low pressure light and it has not yet let me down
