NOS Oil Preassure Gauge on E-bay

[Dozerman51]

Hello all, There is an NOS Oil Pressure Gauge on E-bay. Item#320184764342. Cat#7F0084. This is an SW Wings gauge which I believe was original equipment during some production run of the U series model tractors. I bought one from the same seller on aution last year. It has a few scratches on the metal but is new otherwise. These old type gauges are light years ahead of the crap cat puts out now. :D

One more thing, from my serial number list, the gauge I have and this one were manufactured in Jan 1952.

You might want to be careful when handling these guages. I bought one several years ago that was obviously never used but broke off right where the threads started on the rear fitting.:( I didn't horse around with it, it was just very weak and brittle at that point. I didn't bother with a repair attempt because it is a weak point and I felt line vibration in time would cause it to happen again. It might have prevented the problem if I had reinforced it with JB Weld or something before attempting to mount the gauge.
