Boost gauge

[DF5152]

I am on my third boost gauge in the last month. They have all been autometer. the 1st was an ultra lite 0-60 it started to stick and would not register full boost. sent it to be repaired and it was replaced, just cost me shipping there. I had a second gauge laying around new in the box 0-100 worked fine till today then it wouldnt go below 20. now i just put another in there. anyone else have these problems? I got a gremlin. brakes are pulling to the right after new calipers and pads... . what next

Get a Westach. I've been running them on two differenct trucks for over 6 years and never had a problem...

is there any trash in the boost line to the motor?

I have had a few Autometer boost gauges, with no problems

hope this helps

ran the truck with the gauge removed to clean any garbage out of the line we will see if this helps

I know what you mean. These trucks and gauges dont seem to get along. I had an Autometer ultralight oil pressure gauge (mechanical )that lasted about 1500 miles and then lost about 20 lbs from the actual pressure,had me kinda scared about fuel contamination in the oil,checked that was fine. Put another gauge,same pressured that I always had. Had a Isspro fuel pressure gauge for probably 3000 miles or so. Installed a GDP fuel system hooped in the truck anticipating real fuel pressure only to see just under 7 psi and no flucuation with throttle. Hooked up a cheep oil pressure gauge I had laying around only to see I actually had 20 psi @ idle just like I was suppose to. I just got a new fuel pressure (electric) and rail pressure gauge ,hope I have better luck ,this is getting expensive.

Have had the Autometer guages in my truck for two years now with no problems.

My Autometer Ultra-Lite Boost 0-60 has been installed well over 2 years now with no problems. And after the last upgrades I have used the full range of the gauge occasionally.

Isspros

I had triple Isspros in my '99 on the pillar for seven years with zero issues. This weekend I'm having a Westach combo gauge installed on the '07 and hopefully it'll go well. My neighbor's combo has worked flawlessly for eight years now with the exception of a bulb which Westach replaced.

I have had my autometer ultralite 0-35 boost guage for 3 years until today... I just replaced with 0-60 ultralite... The new turbo will hopefully be here soon...
