fitting an oil pressure guage on a 300 TD 606 engine
Hi All,
I want to fit an engine oil pressure guage on my 300TD (606 engine) Gwagen. Could anyone please advise where the best place is for me to put a pick-up sensor.
Thanks in advance/Phileas
Without looking at a M606 engine, it is difficult to say, but the obvious tap would be the oil pressure switch sensor. This means, you would no longer have a low oil pressure light working, unless you put in, an line T-piece to accommodate the oil pressure switch and oil pressure gauge.
I will try to find out for you any other possible taps, unless some else can contribute.
Cheers,
Can you not use the vdo multi sender as used in most mid 90's Audi's?
If you are sorted no problem other wise Pm me as iam looking into this ( abet at a slow pace)

It was a while ago (10 Years!) but yes would be good to know if OP is still about.
Thanks Rakesh,
Peter sent me a pm and I've had a good scan around the filterhousing and have found the place where the t-piece could go on. I've ordered the guage and pick-up. When it's fitted, I'll take a picture and post it for the record.
Regards,
Phileas
