Its between..
1- Volt Meter Truck doesnt have one and good to know if the alternator is on its way out.

2- Water Temp, Nice to see an exact number but other then that it is serves me no purpose.

3- Tans Temp: Good for when towing or just driving hard but I only tow a couple of time a year.

Maybe I will just go with the easiest to install? What do oyu guys think?

PS, I already have a boost gauge and a Fuel Pres gauge.

Thanks, J

 

I would get a volt gauge.... I like mine and it's simple to install.

 

you could use one temp gauge and wire it up with a switch for a sender for water temp and tranny temp, just buy the gauge labeled with which ever one you are more likely to leave it on. this is what i plan on doing, and just locating a voltmeter elsewhere.

 

I have no more room for a voltmeter in the future. I am running the steering wheel culumn pod (Boost gauge) and the Loteck dual A pillar that retains the stock grab handle. I already have fuel pressure as one and I decided to go with Tranny temp for the second. the way I figure it is its better to keep an eye on your tranny over your battery and alternator

thanks guys.

 

Tranny temp is my choice. The trans is important and expensive, keep an eye on it. John H

 

If I had to pick among those you mentioned, I'd go with water temp, but the capillary tube is a pain in the rear to deal with.

But, if you want a useful gauge, then forget all of em and get Wideband A/F gauge. So much information on how you're running based on that ratio.
