928sRus Fuel Gauge Kit - PLEASE READ
We are aware of a possible failure of a fuel gauge that may have caused an engine fire. If you purchased a kit from us please do not leave it permanently attached to the car. If you wish to maintain the use of the kit as a diagnostic tool that is fine. If you wish to return the kit for a full refund please do. If you need a ball and cap to seal off the end of the fuel rail and you bought a kit from us we will send you them free of charge.

Learned when I had a 944 Turbo that required tuning with Adjustable Fuel Pressure Regulator that even the best fuel rail mounted gauges while great for tuning, where not good to leave on. In the best case they stopped working after a couple of months. Worst case, leak and cause fires.

I am totally gutted about the fact that one of our gauges may have been the cause of Randy's fire. I can't stop thinking about it and need all to know so hopefully it may not happen to someone else.
