    Hi everyone, new to the site, anyway i have a Regal w/ 5.0 307 in it. I just got some Sunpro Sport ST gauges 1 is a water/oil temp, the other oil pressure. I got electric to make installing them easier, so i thought. To the point I need to know where the sensor location for the coolent/ temp is, and i need to know where the point or sensor is for oil pressure gauge PLEASE HELP, ps i did look through the forum i don't see any help there or from googleing it thanks

    Here's how one person has done it. Green wire is coolant temp, brown wire is oil pressure.

    By the way, welcome aboard!

    A long-handled wrench should do it, the threads are tapered pipe thread, so as soon as you loosen each a bit they'll become much easier to turn.
