Default Re: Mechanical Oil pressure gauge fittings

Hi flathead8,

The common type you're thinking of is for a compression fitting. The type with the straight end is for soldering onto the copper tubing, just like those used in the early gas gauge line in a 32 ,i.e., the hydrostatic fuel gauge tubing from tank to gauge.
