4x4 Gauges

What 4x4 Gauges Should You Be Using?

Coolant

If you think that the gauge fitted to your vehicle as standard will be up to the task, you may be in for a rude awakening. Most “stock” gauges provide only low-level feedback, but you will want a lot more precise information than that. An aftermarket gauge gives you a very accurate reading, so that you can take action before any problem becomes too expensive.

Exhaust Gas

This type of gauge is more sophisticated and is meant to check the temperature of the exhaust gas within the engine. It will tell you if something is amiss, whether your mixture is out, or whether you are putting the engine under too much pressure at that point. This one is probably even more important than the coolant gauge.

Turbo Boost

This gauge lets you know how much pressure is being supplied by your turbocharger and is especially important if you have any other, aftermarket modifications, like an intercooler or tuning module. You’ll want to ensure that the boost is never too high, as this can cause engine damage.

Oil Pressure

This one is definitely an early warning siren, because if your oil pressure drops too far or climbs too high you are going to have problems either way. High pressure may indicate a serious blockage, while low pressure could indicate contamination, but this gauge will certainly be more accurate than the traditional light on your dashboard.
