Remember the MINI oil pressure guage is not a guage. Its total loss of pressure warning light! If its on then your likely to be screwed!

Thats my reason for the Temp gauge, but as im a novice in all this stuff and im learning as i go, what is dangerous for road users if you loose oil pressure, ( i clearly aint thinking at the mo)

And the MINI oil pressure gauge i guess there is no gauge its just the light that will appear when all is lost!
