I can't give a precise answer, but I learned a trick with my '74 Miget. The oil pressure part of the gauge leaked and as a result the P.O. stripped all the related parts off (the metal tubing and al

Hi Bill, I'm pretty sure yours was the original type. Short piece of pipe with an enlarged lump near the hose end. I've used copper tubing as a replacement for ages. Eliminate the short stiff hose. Y

Didn't you have to change the fitting in the block to fit the copper pipe, though? I had one on mine for a short time, but I eventually replaced it with a braided steel version from Winner's Circle:

I agree with Paul. What you describe does sound like original. The other alternative is a flexible hose kit. I think it's sold as a vacuum line kit. The one I found at the mass. merch. auto parts sto

Hi David, This is a 1275 in a Morris van. The morris has only an oil light, so I had replaced the original fitting with a 1/8" pipe street T and used both the light and the tubing to the pressure gua
