Diesel Bombers - 3rd Gauge

Diesel Bombers (https://www.dieselbombers.com/)

- 6.0L Performance (https://www.dieselbombers.com/6-0l-performance/)

- - 3rd Gauge (https://www.dieselbombers.com/6-0l-performance/65972-3rd-gauge.html)

Kinda like what I was wantin' to do eventually. Have Oil Press, Boost, EGT and Water Temp on the A-pillar, Fuel Press, Fuel Level tank 1 and Fuel Level tank 2 (once I put the twin tanks in) right above the rear view mirror, Volt and Trans Temp in the steering column

not to correct u and i may be wrong but i was washin my truck one day (before i had the gauge) truck started to idle funny and act wrong all around. made it 2 miles and the hpop went out...now having a gauge may not have helped me but i still think its a good one to have once u have ur top 3 or 4

Acually I had the second Alpha HPO gauge built in the country...:moon:

Ran it for quite a while, but just a stand alone HPO gauge does not really tell you that much.

And if I dont have the gauge installed in the dash I want, I can reach into the back seat and grab one of these...

This is what I use for a HPO gauge, it gives me more information then just a HPO gauge will give me. Duty cycle is a HUGE part of HPO.

Again, A HPO gauge would not have given you any more warning then that. Are you sure it was your HPOP and not the IPR? When you replaced one did you or they replace both???

Just asking, because it is VERY rare for a HPOP to break.

Isspro can make you a fuel level sender and provide you with a fuel level gauge... I run one for my 110 bed tank.

the truck was under warranty at the time so i dropped it off and they worked on it so im not 100% sure what it was but they told me it was the hpop (they could be lying) and in the time under my warranty (100k in 4 yrs) i went through 4 hpops...atleast thats what the paper work said

More the likely they thru a new IPR and New HPOP at the same time... I doubt you went thru 4 of them, more like you had 4 IPR issues...

My girlfriend bought me a triple pillar pod and I have no idea what to put as the 3rd gauge. I'm doin' EGT and boost. The truck is a stick so there's not much need for trans temp, and my water temp in the dash is fine so I don't need that.

Skip the boost. EGT, Fuel Pressure and EOT is what I would get. Or get a Scan gauge in place of EOT.

Too bad you couldn't get an ET till 6.0 blows up guage :lol88:

Yeah they're called oil temp and coolant temp. Tells you when oil cooler is failing which leads to blown egr coolers and headgasket failure in 99% of cases.

Fuel pressure, EOT, ECT and EGT if you got any kinda of custom tune or havey towing.
