Voltmeter
1. Negative (-) battery cable should remain disconnected.
2. Fasten voltmeter in metal panel using U-bracket and two M5 metric
nuts. Tighten firmly, but do not bend or distort brackets.
3. Cut two lengths of 18-gauge wire. Auto Meter Kit No. 2214 is
recommended. One wire is for connecting gauge to fuse box, the
other connects to good engine ground. Strip insulation back
1 ⁄
4
” on
one end of each wire. Attach terminal lug and wire to positive (+)
terminal on back of gauge as shown above. Connect other end of this
wire to appropriate 12V source at fuse box. Attach the ground wire to
negative (-) terminal on back of gauge as shown above and connect
other end to good dash or chassis ground bolt.
See final procedures to complete installation.
Water Temperature
1. Drain antifreeze from cooled radiator into a container. Never drain
hot coolant! Save antifreeze to refill radiator after installation.
2. Drill a 7 ⁄
8
” dia. hole in the firewall and route temperature sensing bulb
through mounted panel first and then through firewall. Install a rubber
grommet provided in firewall hole to hold gauge tubing in place.
3. Locate the original temperature sending unit port (see caution on
front of this instruction) and replace with gauge sending unit using the
1 ⁄
2
” NPT adapter supplied. Using sealing compound on threads, insert
and tighten mounting nut in the port in engine. Insert temperature
sensing bulb into mounting nut and carefully thread the sealing nut
into the mounting nut. Be sure to hold the mounting nut securely
while tightening sealing nut. Check the tubing is free from hazard of
moving parts or hot engine components.
4. Refill radiator with coolant.
Final Procedure
1. Insert light bulb and socket assembly into back of gauge. Connect
red lighting wire to 12V power source in dash lighting circuit. Light
socket is grounded through gauge case. It may be necessary to
attach a separate ground wire between the case stud and good
engine ground if light does not operate.
2. Reconnect negative(-) battery cable. Re-program your clock and
radio if necessary.

3. Wrap a clean rag around fittings on back of oil pressure gauge and
place a pan on the floor under them to protect vehicle interior from
potential leaking oil. Start the engine and run for 30 seconds. Shut
off engine and check rag for leaks. If none appear, start engine again
and visually check all connections for leaks.
