Re: water pump related

You can tie in a manual gauge where the sending unit is for the pressure transducer. Check and clean the wiring for the gauge in the dash. Verify the resistance difference in the tranducer with the motor off and with it running to verify the transducer is functional. Hurry, the stripers are running big now!!<br />Good luck
