I am installing a mechanical autometer gauge, how do you get this thing off? I've tried unscrewing it but it just spins and spins. Am i missing something here?
Thanks
Thanks

Sweet. I had to buy mine when I ordered them from Summit. A lot of people just order the gauge and not the adapters and then get upset when they don't just hook right up.Mavrick said:Ya, i bought my gauges used from a guy in PA. Nice guy, sent me the adapter fitting for the temp gauge, fittings and copper line for the oil gauge!

It would be impossible for the water gauge.evn_05 said:Be sure and use PLENTY of teflon tape on the T fitting that you put on there. I guess we didnt get enough on mine cause I noticed it was coverd in oil when i was changing my oil. Just another thing I need to fix....
Well good luck and make sure your connections on the gauges are good I wouldnt want to have hot oil/water spraying out in the cockpit.
