Lowe's and Home depot Suck.
I spent the better part of my afternoon driving all over town to get a female 1/8 to 1/8 hose barb. No one has it. None of the parts stores. Now I have to use the crappy compression fitings that come with the boost gauge. Go buy a female 1/4 to 1/4 hose barb. And an adapter tee just to hook up the gauge.
I'm sorry I don't like red neck rigging. It usually ends up in disaster, or just plan ugly.
I'm going to try and find an Ace Hardware.
The Stewart Warner gauge comes with stupid parts. This should be plug up and your done. They didn't give one single hose connector for tubing. And the tubing is tiny and hard.
But the gauge looks good.
The tiny tubing can be forced into my vacume hose id. It is snug. It doesn't take much pressure to attach the vaccume to the map on ms. Do you think this would work. Awwww it isn't worth chancing.
What do you think?
