Anybody familiar with the dart big m.New motor installing a mechanincal oil pressure guage.My old guage fit by the oil filter,the new motor dart says to tap in by the top of the trans-drivers side-1/4 inch npt.Well i hooked it up and 0psi.Any ideas-guage worked perfectly before new motor.

I thought it was a 1/8 pipe in back of the left cylinder head I maybe wrong but are you tring to prime the engine??
[IMG][/IMG]NO as far as i now its a 1/4 then a male 1/8th then the stainless line.The motor was just dynoed and that is were they tapped in at.So i just went along with were they told me to tap in at.You should not have to prime if it was dynoed and installed i n the same week -at least i dont think so.

That is 1/4 pipe there as I looked down in the shop and was going by a Little-M I sitting there and I would not think it would have to be primed if it just came off the dyno but it would not hurt anything.
