What's up all? A couple days ago I went out and picked up my very own sweet sweet 240, a brightly burnt orange flying machine that reminds me of the good old days when cars were metal and people had some love. I'd almost rather zip around in this car than on my bike (anyone want to buy a 97 Suzuki Katana...), which is quite a statement if you've ever ridden a bike. Anyway, I'm now in the process of paying back friendly loans and doing research the things I'm going to do to the car (not dirty) and I ran into a stupid question: On the s14 ka24 stock gauge cluster I have, from Right to Left, Fuel level, (broken) Speedometer, Tachometer, aaaaand . . . ??? I cannot for the life of me tell wether the far left gauge is oil pressure or temperature. My buddy says its pressure, but after my searching I am only less sure. Its a squiggly line, under a straight line, with the notched meter in the middle and the needle usually sits right at 1/3 or so from the resting position when the car is running. If somebody could point me in the right direction I'd really appreciate it.Other than that, I'm loving the ride. Stage one is to fix the speedometer, throw on some additional gauges so I can moniter my internals, and learn to drive rear wheel style! I already got my first speeding ticket, which isn't really something to brag about, but the circumstances were fun and hilarious.Oh, since this is like an introduction, I'm 21, from Alaska, living in WA for some school, then who knows. I've been driving since I was about 8 but never really did serious work on cars.Thats about it, I'll try to get some shots of the car when I get a camera (and wipe it down haha)
peace
