Oil Pressure gauges and slabwood siding

A couple of days ago we sided the woodshed at a friends with 8'+ lengths of slabwood. We have a bunch of snow and ice heading into the area and wanted to keep the firewood dry.

Yesterday I added a Oil Pressure gauge to the veggiegen. Although there is a Hobbs Oil Pressure shutdown switch, I needed a gauge to see actual pressure and oil viscosity differences. The engine starts out at 75PSI, and drops to 45 as the oil heats up. We are good. We are losing coolant and the water pump is wobbly, so I have a new project on my list.

Pics coming shortly.
