i ordered the auto meter elec oil pressure gauge.
i heard the hardest part was conn the sender. i was told that we need a tee that has 1- meteric male, 1- meteric female & 1- standard 1/4" female.
i was told that the first thing to do is find out what size meteric fitting our car uses.

The way I did it was by removing the stock sender, then attaching a metric to stadard adapter, and installing the gauge pressure sender. Once you have done that you will need to connect a wire from the sender to the gauge.

The first pic is when I tried to use an auto meter oil pressure switch. It didn't work since the maxima's idle oil pressure is too low. I just reused the OEM oil pressure switch and ran the wire all the way down to the OEM harness. The last pic shows the OEM oil pressure switch the the tee setup.
