dc0341 Posted March 4 Report Posted March 4 Hello all, I recently purchased a 83 M20J. Once I got it back home, I noticed it did not have a fuel pressure gauge. The panel was redone about 2 years ago and the only gauges that remain are the fuel quantity gauges. I have a JPI EDM830 but it does not read the fuel pressure. Could I swap out the manifold pressure gauge from a M20F that has both manifold/fuel pressure readings and install it in my J? I don't want to get another gauge if I don't have to because I don't want to cut into the panel. Thanks in advance. Quote

My 1983 J had fuel pressure in the top row of gauges, near the fuel level and oil pressure gauges. What gauges do you have? The 830 is not a primary gauge, so the original gauges must be retained. edit: found photo example Edited March 5 by Bolter found appropriate photo Quote
Slick Nick Posted March 5 Report Posted March 5 Did you have a pre buy inspection done? I’m surprised something like that wasn’t caught. Quote
