Attention: TDR Forum Junkies 
After the lift pump install my Stewart Warner 0-16 gauge went out of range. I'm not a big fan of digital gauges but my F. P. gauge is low so it doesn't bother me. Dakota's price for a 0-30 gauge and 2 senders was reasonable too. $80 for the gauge and $23. 40 per sender. It has programmable alarm options for high and low, just no output, it flashes.
Anyway, now that I can read my pressure quickly and acurately, almost 22 PSI at idle onced warmed up. 15-17 PSI cruising and never been able to get it below 12 PSI. I'll take that.
A word of warning though. Don't be too excited to see your new gauge work that you forget to hook the fuel lines back up.
Fired her up and 0 pressure... ..... WTF is going on, then I smelled the old #2 perfume wafting into the cab. Only on for about 15 seconds and probably pumped 1-2 gallons onto the engine compartment and driveway. Unfortunately I have an asphalt driveway and it seeped into all the tiny cracks. Used degreaser and hosed it forever but already signs of damage are popping up. Anyone know a good way to get the fuel out of the cracks??
