Review on πŸ”‹ Equus 8164 Electric Oil Pressure Gauge 1-1/2" - White with Aluminum Bezel: Accurate and Reliable Monitoring for Engine Performance by John Stowers

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Updated 5 star rating after many months of daily use.

Have been using this gauge for about two years. No negative questions. I needed an oil pressure gauge for my 2011 Tacoma and scoured the internet to find one that met the following criteria: 1) reliability, 2) use with the truck's existing low pressure lamp (the Equus transmitter makes this possible), 3) complimenting interior design and 4) small enough to fit within tight confines. The Equus 8164 oil pressure sensor (electrical, not mechanical) meets all these requirements and more. It's easy to install once you've chosen a location to install it and have some basic tools. In my case, instead of using a sensor mount, I drilled a hole in an existing plastic panel next to the truck's dashboard. It serves its purpose without buying additional accessories. I still rate it 5 stars. Perhaps the only complaint (and it's minor) is that I could only find one sensor with a white background. Overall I am very happy with the meter.

Pros
  • Nice packaging
Cons
