The Stovebolt Site Forums The Shop Area General Truck Talk 1964 Mechanical Oil Pressure Gage Hookup

I am trying to hook up my mechanical oil pressure gage with a new copper line. Old line is one of the plastic ones that I cut out.
At the engine it takes a female fitting that I have.
At the dash it takes a male fitting. I cannot locate one of these at my local flaps (maybe I'm asking wrong??)
Anyone know of one, maybe an online source?

Try your local NAPA. Mine had them in there small parts bins. If not send me your address via PM and I'll send you a used one.

check out the FLAPS Weatherhead brass fitting selection...

Thanks guys.
I had gone to a NAPA, O'Reillys and Auto Zone.
Another trip to another NAPA yeilded what I needed.
By the way I bought two just to have another on hand.

And the correct name of this amazing fitting is???
Just so I'll know what to ask for when I go to my FLAPS.

I didn't get a name, they just had them so I grabbed them.
I guess I would call it the male ferrell fitting with out the ferrell (it's one piece). The second NAPA that I went to had a guy that knew exactly what I needed.
I am putting the cab back on the frame so when I get it running I will find out how good a job I did.
