My Rampy has a Spyder dash (a 110 engine). The gauges all work - thermister
is installed in the engine. The boost gauge never goes above zero, of
course. I suppose that it might be possible to find a oil pressure or oil
temp gauge to put in that spot. But, I'm not looking to do so. Only Tim
will see the attached picture.
Later, JR
