Fuel and Oil Pressure Sensors

Fitted the oil and fuel pressure sensors. I made up my own connections based around -3 fittings and decided to use some coloured braided hose for a change to add a little more colour to the engine bay. The pressure sensors need to be mounted remotely to avoid early failure of the transducer due to excessive vibration.

As i have only 4 inputs on the Dash 2 I will connect the oil pressure to the MBE and the fuel pressure to the Dash 2. On the Dash 2 I will also connect the gear position, fuel level and oil temperature. The oil pressure, engine RPM, vehicle speed, water temp, intake air temp and various other values will then be displayed on the Dash 2 via CAN bus.
