Re: Fuel Pressure Gauge
Yes, but if is carb fuel pressure, an oil pressure gauge may not be that accurate at that low pressure.

How do, Mike.
DJ fuel injection. Around 30-35 psi of presssure
The camper is suffering from hot start issues...as in not starting. From my readings it stems from lower than normal fuel pressure at the injectors.

Re: Fuel Pressure Gauge
Really any dial type pressure gauge will work then. Also make a note of the difference in pressure between closed and wide open throttle to check the pressure regulator.
