Any Diagrams Fluid Temp, Oil Pressure and Amp gauges?
I would like to install these gauges any photos or drawings to show the hookup please?
no photos but it's pretty easy ...........
what year is the steamer .. ..........98?
if it is the oil pressure sender is right below the carbs behind cylinder #3
unscrew it and get a tee fitting to replace into the threaded hole the in engine block
it's not an american pipe thread though get the right fitting it's british pipe thread
screw the tee fitting in and reinstall the oil pressure sender into one of the openings and then use the other to feed a pressure supply line to the oil pressure gauge.
or don't bother with the oem pressure sender and use the port to feed only a new pressure gauge which will leave you without an idiot light
the voltmeter gauge is really easy
run a wire from the battery terminal to the gauge follow the directions that come with the gauge !
what's wrong with using the stock water temp gauge ?
if you want to replace it you will need to put a new sender in the cylinder head to replace the OEM(it's next to the valve cover on the top left side of the cylinder head) one so that the sender voltage matches the new gauge

Your Right The stock Temp gage is fine, getting ahead of myself..
Thanks for making that Easy Mustang..
Where do you get these fittings and hose for the oil guage I am going direct no Dummy light?
Thanks for all your help Mustang..
the oil gauge should have come with a piece of hose and fittings
you may have to find an adapter to go from the thread in the engine and to the oil pressure gauge fitting , and as long as you have to do that use a tee fitting so you can keep the idiot light on dash panel.
take your oil pressure sender out and go to the auto parts store and get some fittings that match your thread on the sender .
any decent auto parts store should have what you need :roll:
