Ok, this may be the dumbest newbie question of all time.
Most of my 20 year gauges are a bit dodgy, so I'm going to check them all and update as necessary.
Am I correct in thinking that the gauges are connected in parallel?
For those like the oil pressure and temperature, do I need a special sender to run two gauges?
I am thinking of replacing defective units with automotive gauges. Any problems with that?

Yes there are different senders for dual and single station.
Be careful what automotive gauges you get, they need to be able to work off the specs of the senders you have.

Thanks Don, appreciate the info.

PS: Seems you're pretty much the "Lone Ranger" around here.:D
