This past Sunday I installed my new volt gauge in the dash. I was just too tired after the previous days demolition to do much so I picked the gauge install. The volt gauge is the small one on the right. The picture didn't come out very well but it is a very nice gauge from Isspro. Now I can tell exactly what the new alternator is doing and when charging and when not.
When I bought the bus it did not have a volt gauge in the dash or an oil pressure or water temp gauge in the rear engine room. While the volt gauge is not a must have, the other two are. So when I first put the bus in the shop at Republic Diesel for those oh many months, I had them install the direct oil pressure and water temperature gauges in the rear. That way I know for sure what the correct readings are. Old dash gauges tend to not be nearly as accurate.
