By manual gauge do you mean with a 15' long tube? It can work, but it's prone to breakage. Much riskier than the electronic gauge, but better than nothing. Every Vanagon should have an oil pressure gauge IMHO, it's the only way to know the condition of the engine.

Thanks, Stuart!

I'll be putting in the manual gauge.... I can probably cobble together a tee for the two to work together....
