Naughty!

A z that makes food?

You could try protecting areas you don't want effected by welding spatter with dampened bath towels. This has worked for me before.

There's an mr2 of about that age in the background of photo #6

I did temporarily "lose" my z in a big car park once, it was hiding between two modern cars...

My gauge can give some fairly low readings as well.I'll get around to ordering a new sender one day. I have a mechanical gauge that I fit every so often and check the oil pressure under driving...

I've had #37 for a few years, #36 just randomly popped up for sale.Been repainted but otherwise nice and original, still on the same motor.Needs a few small jobs doing, but ready to drive and enjoy.
