Unless it is ran through the window temporarily to do tests. Definitely not good as a permanent installation. I was surprised at the difference between pressure sitting still and pressure at WOT until I found my contaminated fuel system and all became crystal clear.

I now got an electric pressure gauge mounted in the cab in the over the mirror pod. It was around $10 on ebay with sensor and all. Not at all accurate but works, sometimes. I plan to upgrade in the future but nice electric fuel pressure gauges are pretty pricy.

I’ve installed two liquid filled industrial 0-100 psi gauges under the hoods of powerstrokes and both of the gauges sprung and quit working within a week or two.
