Subject:      pressure gauge range for vanagon
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1

Hi All,

I ordered a 100psi pressure gauge to check my van's fuel pressure
(30-40psi normal, 90 psi with fuel pressure regulator not functioning)
, and the shop brought me a 140PSI one by mistake. The only thing I'm
losing is resolution in the low range, which isn't too serious. But it
got me thinking whether I need a higher range for other pressures
measurable in the van.
I can't think of anything higher than 100psi except the cylinder
compression, but this simple gauge doesn't fit that application
anyway, right?
I'd appreciate fellow listees comments.

Cheers,
TM
