2 fuel p.s.i. gauges broke

[Mario210]

Soon after i had my fass 95 installed i put an inline p. s. i. gauge in. The first one lasted 3 weeks,it was stuck at 6 psi. I replaced it with a higher quality gauge and this one lasted 4 weeks. It is stuck at 5 psi. Am i just having bad luck or is the fass spiking and killing my gauges?????

Mechanical gauges are generally pretty reliable. However, vibration kills them. Is it installed where it is subject to vibration?

 

[Mario210]

It is on the 3/8 fuel line supplied by fass,about 10'' from the cp3. They were both liquid filled gauges and should take some vibration.

put a snubber before the gauge and it will last longer... a ±0. 005" or ±100µ one will work nicely
