Questions & Answers
If you don't exceed the guage's maximum pressure, it should work fine in diesel.
I used this gauge for about 6 months (before selling the car) and had no issues with it!
No ! My gauge is for fuel pressures ranging from 1 to 15 psi, and it looks and functions flawlessly!
I'm sorry, but I'm not sure! I sold the car on which it was installed, but I recall it working well and looking cool!

I wish I could give this gauge a perfect score, but I'm afraid I won't be able to. I had two of them ordered. The weight was estimated to be around 7 pounds on one of the scales. My fuel pump is putting out a lot of pressure; The other weighed in at under a pound. I know the pump produces a lot of pressure, so one of the gauges could have been accurate. The other is obviously faulty, though it could be a one-off, a rare lemon. Who knows, though. This gauge has a really nice look to it. It's simple to follow and understand. I just wish I could rely on it to be accurate. I wasn't able to install and test the gauges until after the return window had closed because I was waiting for additional fittings that I'd ordered online, so the defective one was a loss. Darn! Good- gauge of interest Perhaps one of the items you order will be satisfactory. It should be put to immediate use. Don't make the same mistake I did by waiting too long.
It worked better than the old fluid-filled one I was using, and I only used it for testing purposes, not as a permanent installation. I'm not sure if this or the Mr Gasket fuel regulator were operating at 1 pound of pressure, but they got me where I needed to go.
I didn't think about the fact that if you have a non-stock cam in your vehicle, this won't work. I have a 76 Camaro that has been converted into a muscle car, and the needle is jumping all over the place when the car is idling. The gauge is also a little small, which is a drawback. I'm not sure if this is common practice. Whatever the case may be, it appears to be cool.
I installed a pressure gauge on the fuel line, which worked fine except that it leaked gasoline onto the exhaust manifold. Fortunately, I was aware of it before anything bad occurred. I'm trying to get the gauge back now. Hopefully, everything will go smoothly, and I will be a satisfied customer who will give this five stars instead of zero.
Very quickly, it ceased to function. Made for a low price. Purchase a different, higher-quality one.
This was superior to the autometer one I had removed, and I am extremely pleased with the quick shipping.
After a few days of use, it began to leak and eventually failed.
It didn't last ten hours, at least not in my opinion. I guess it served its purpose because it lasted long enough for me to gauge the pressure.
