Problems with boost guage.

I recieved a autometer boost guage that i bought off of ebay and it didn't come with any wires. Can these be bought seperatley or am I just screwed?

Thanks

It shouldn't have wires if it's mechanical - you just need a bulb and harness for the bulb, a length of hose, and some time.

The Lunar series has wires I suppose - because they are Indiglo lighted.

if its mechanical, than there are NO wires! all you need is some silicone hose or capilary tubing, and attach it to the back of the gauge. all this and the bulbs can be found at places like Jegs.com, etc. whoever supplies autometer stuff

i think the seal on my gauge is loose. im at a 3.33 pulley and when its even 32 degrees out, i only see 5 maybe 6 psi.

there is a click from the gauge pod when i hit 6 and it doesnt rise any more

what can i seal it up with? form a gasket?
