Hi minor freaks

Where can i buy an oil pressure gauge (mechanical) and a mounting plate for 2 instruments at a cheap fair price on the net for my Traveller 1098 cc engine ?

cheers

ESM http://www.morrisminorspares.co.uk will do you a brand new set with the sendor etc. but you can pick them up quite cheap on ebay aswell.

I got mine on e-bay, minispares.com do all the connectors etc at a reasonable price.

I got mine out of scrapyard Minis (70s ones). Probably not that many about now though...

Hello Betjent,

I`m a big ESM fan, and i don`t know a lot about oil pressure gauges, but the price discrepancy between them and the above site is incredible, is it all a matter of quality ?

You pay a lot for Smiths, as I recall VDO are a much cheaper brand. Doesn't mean they're no good though, but of course your gauges will say VDO and have a different face, so they won't look original or period I suppose. Given the price, I'd probably get VDO for practicality, and Smiths when they turn up for 50p at a car boot
