jake,
I read up on your problem and it appears that antidepressants or the little blue pill can help.. There is also something called the "squeeze technique"..
google it and see what you can find.

Did someone say wildly off topic?
Ok, so will the lift pump pressurize the injector lines at all, or only the injection pump?

We do go off topic a bit sometimes but its really Mayfairs fault.. []


Anyway, yes the lift pump will only pressurize the portion up to the fuel pump.

I see, Mayfair is of the scapegoat species then. A very handy critter to keep around. [sm=boink3.gif]
Anyway, what are the solutions for a very unobtrusive, finished looking single gauge mount? Dirt cheap if possible.

This one from Geno's I thought was prety cool.



Item Number : GM-DG-15012

Unit Price: $29.95


Detailed Description
With the addition of the driver's side grab handle ('03 trucks), gauge mounting options have changed. Gauge Works by Autometer has designed a single, as well as dual, steering column pod.

This mount receives most standard 2" gauges.

'94-'02 Steering Column Single Mount

I like... cheap, behind glass(well plastic anyway) but exactly where and how does this go in? Bear in mind this is my girlfriends truck. I cant actually look at it right now.


Found in installed pic I like.

No girlfriend, so not a problem now

I also went and got a low pressure light to mount next to/ in my gauge (haven't hooked it up yet). I'll use it as a warning light you know (hey stupid look over here kinda thing)
