Can I use my spare VDO oil pressure sender as a fuel pressure sending unit? I have used it for this purpose once to check FP diagnostically, but was wondering if it was okay for long term use? I was going to run two extra wires from the engine compartment up to my 3 gauge pod on top of the instrument cluster(op/vacuum, and oil temp). By rigging up two toggle or rocker switches nearby, I was going to have the pressure gauge where I could read either oil or fuel pressure and then have the temp gauge do both water and oil. Now if I can just get a toggle switch to make the vacuum gauge read volts(yes, I'm taking that too far).
