HOW TO USE:

• Mount the Gauge: Choose a suitable location in your vehicle and drill a 2.062-inch (52mm) hole. Secure the gauge in place.
• Install the Pressure Sensor: Locate a suitable vacuum/boost source on your engine’s intake manifold. Install the provided pressure sensor at this location.
• Connect the Vacuum/Boost Hose: Attach one end of the included boost/vac hose to the pressure sensor and the other end to the back of the gauge.
• Connect the Wiring Harnesses:
  • Connect the 3-wire cable from the pressure sensor to the corresponding terminals on the back of the gauge.
  • Connect the 3 ft power and lighting harness to a suitable 12V power source in your vehicle (following the harness instructions for power and ground).
• Test the Gauge: Start your vehicle and observe the gauge readings to ensure proper installation and function. The gauge should show a vacuum reading at idle and a boost reading when the engine is under load (if applicable).
