Was going to install a water pressure gauge but Paul mentioned the pressure was so low not to bother. So now I am curious how to install a tell-tale?

Thanks in advance,
Patrick

You could remove the water jacket cover on the head. Drill, and tap it 1/8" pipe thread, and install a brass barb.Once installed, and sealed, you will have to grind off the barb where it goes into the head, as there is'nt much room.
