Default Water pressure gauage.....

Some of you asked about my water pressure gauge so here it is....

I mounted the hose to the top of the water pump. There is this pressure sending unit that goes between the line and the guage. When the water pressure gets about 10 this light goes out. I used a shift light for the light. Ill get more pictures when I go down there. This is all form a boat surplus place. My dad is looking into ordering more of the sending lights and guages. Then I can be a supporting member . my dad made a guage console that goes were the radio used to go also. It looks better in person.
