Oil Bar Gauge 200

I drive a '84 240GL without a turbo. I'm trying to customize it and thought that a volvo gauge cluter would be a great place to start. I got the 52mm clock, voltemeter, and oil bar gauge. T ahve both the clock and voltemeter working, but how can i hook up the oil bar gauge. The car I pulled the gauge from appeared to have a different wiring harnes for the dash. Thanks.

your car(I believe) has a 1/8 27 NPT threaded hole in the block where the oil pressure idiot light sender goes right now....it's just in front of the oil filter and behind the alternator. You could get an 80psi sender from egauges.com for 26 bucks or so...it's pretty easy to wire it in from there...good luck!

Is it a 3 or 5 bar gauge? Do you have a sender? I have an extra 3 bar sender if you need, I haven't tried to hook up my gauge yet so I don't know about the wiring...

It's a 5 bar gauge, and I don't think I've got a sender. Any way to install one?

the sender goes in next to the oil filter- I need one too, about $60 online.
