Hello all,
I'm populating the various gaps in the dashboard of my chummy project and am fitting a 0-10 type oil gauge, I think the same type as would be fitted to a box saloon etc.
Can anyone tell me what the correct size solder nut and nipple is? I'm assuming it's the same on both the engine outlet and the pressure gauge. Similarly what is the correct diameter for the pipe itself? The Complete Automobilist lists various combinations and I'm not certain what is correct.
In terms of soldering the nipple onto the pipe, should I be using silver solder or can I just use conventional solder?
Any help much appreciated!
