Darren-K Posted June 18, 2006 Share Posted June 18, 2006 just do a google search man ! http://www.google.co.uk/search?hl=en&q=how+to+connect+a+boost+gauge&meta= Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest mk47 Posted June 18, 2006 Share Posted June 18, 2006 no i know how to connect it to the car. i just dont know how to connect the vacum pipe to the back of the boost gauge, theres about 7 bolts but i cant figure out where and how they connect up to each other. is that any clearer? and i know how to use search but theres nothing specific for my problem.

colsoop Posted June 18, 2006 Share Posted June 18, 2006 Do you have a brass fitting with little notches going round it coming out of the gauge ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest mk47 Posted June 18, 2006 Share Posted June 18, 2006 here is pretty much what it looks like. now i cant manage to work out where any of the brass fittings go- and how to connect the vacuum hose into the back of the gauge as shown in the pic.
