Is there anybody reproducing the old Sylphon gauges? Wilford the D2 had a later-style temp gauge installed, & I had to twist the bulb off to get it out when I took the fuel tank off. I bought a cheapo "Cat" gauge on ebay for now, but eventually I'd like to have an original style to match the others...the oil pressure & fuel pressure are both original Sylphons, & they both still work.
Thanks

I have been rebuilding old oil pressure gauges but I'm sure that they are not the sylphon gauges. Can you send me a picture of one; Bill Walter E-mail; [email protected] 816 891 8654

Bill, here's a pic of the fuel pressure gauge. What I need is a water temp gauge of that style.

Sounds great Pete, I can't wait to see those new one's because I need them for my old girls with busted up gauges, these gauges have been a long time coming, hopefully next on the production list will be the Ensign carbies for the Ten and Fifteens.......

Thanks Pete, good to know something is in the works. My ebay cheapo will work for now to get going, if I ever get to the total restoration point, maybe it will be available.

That sound great Pete. I'll be curious about the price. I'm planning on having a "before" and an "after" gauge at the show among a good supply of rebuilt injectors and tested pumps.

I'll check to see if a water gauge is available when I go to pick up a couple of oil gauges later this week. A fellow chapter member gave me a Sylphon gauge but it was locked up tight. Perhaps I should try soaking it more yet. Bill walter

Who did the rebuilding on these gauges. I have several cores but understand Bill Walter only does oil gauges.- Wally

Yes, they do look nice, still, if Garlic Pete can get the oil gauges right and out the door for a fair price then a new temp gauge will be a walk in the park for the young fella!
