Angry Autometer Disappointment

Installed a autometer fuel press, boost, and oil temp in the c2 version. The light went bad in the fuel press gauge within the first hour of opperation So i pulled it out and sat it on my tool box then i knocked it off on the floor and smashed the bezel. $200 down the crapper. so i ordered another from summit racing and installed it today and the backlight is a dfferent color blue
$400 wrapped up in a fuel gauge and it doesnt match the other 2 c2 gauges. the first one was barely off but this one is way off, way darker blue. So all in all i have about $600 in autometer purchases this month, what should i do

start drinking.




have you contacted SUmmit or Autometer about the issue? would start with summit but they are just going to tell you to send it back and they will replace it with the possibility of it being wrong again. call autometer and see what they say.

"start drinking." - I don't care who you are, that's funny right there.

Sorry, I have had an horrible day myself and needed a laugh.

Give Summit a call. They'll take care of you.

Getting back to drinking...... I think I could use a couple. Had a rough day at work and sending Don (Thuren) money for a set of custom valved King's. Better get back to work; he's gonna drain my bank account!
