Has anybody had something similar happen?

I attempted to replicate the ...

Re: gauge pin broke...

Looks like I'm going to have to buy a whole cluster. The wreckers have one for $AU 110, that sucks but i guess it'll have to do. Thanks.

I get back in and try to turn the ...

Re: Solenoid on Air Box...

Solenoid on Air Box...

I've found, after some fumbling around with the vaccum hoses, that my front solenoid (pressure regulator control) that its sort of broke. This is the sensor that resides on the side of the original air filter box.

The side part where the tube is meant to connect has been severed, has been like ...
