looking for a low tem mechanical oil temp gauge

I am sure its not what your looking for but an electric, or digital may be the only way to get that range, and be accurate.

I had to get a digital for my coolant. Same gauge for oil. It's a Dakota Digital. Goes to 70 degrees F. Below 70 it just says "Low". Goes up in 2 degree increments.

I just leave the chiller on 'till it says "Low". LOL

No reason it would not be fine for oil. Needs 1/4" npt hole.

I had the same issue but I ended up with this: http://www.summitracing.com/parts/atm-4369

It's 60-210 degrees.

Paul ---that's what I need wonder if they have a mechanical one

I don't think they do - I tried to find one because of the cost of the electric, but had no luck.

I found them for $148 but thats more than Im willing to pay---really want a mechanical gauge will keep looking
