Received this lovely old instrument long time ago from a dear friend in Melbourne. Used it today for the first time, an old Dyane arrived with the oil warning lamp on, only at idle. Fitted the gauge but I don't understand kPa.

kPa is kilopascals

10kPa equals 1.45 psi

so 550kPa = 79.77 psi

I seem to remember that 1 bar=14.5 Psi so 1 bar=100Kpa?
