[QUOTE="ORVietVet, post: 28049, member: 9438"] Recently I was working on a 2010 F150 5.4 with a fluttering oil pressure needle on my mechanical gauge from my tool box. I wanted to see what it would say/do while driving. I went to my local O'Reilly's and they did not have extended lines to attach and read the oil pressure, in the cab while driving. They suggested to see a local, right down the street, supplier of all different kinds of sizes and lengths of lines and pressures that the lines would handle. Plus they had whatever fittings I needed and they built me 2 custom length, 8', lines with the correct fittings, for the oil pressure and fuel pressure. My cost, out the door was close to $60 total. The extended line gave me plenty of length for the oil pressure diagnostics and I know the fuel line will work too. Since I do work out of my driveway, these 2 lines will save me so much time and guesswork. I can also get the scanner out and do it, but I wanted to SEE the fluttering needle. [/QUOTE]
