The vans analog gauge in the -8 has gone loco. Any suggestions?

It will monitor volts and amps, either internal or external shunt.

I might have a old "new" Mitchel gauge still in the box on my shelf in the garage. Then again it might be the Amp gauge. I'll take a look when I get home and get back to you.
UPDATE: Sorry it is the amp meter not volt.

The Davtron M655 5-in-1 gauge is handy. Volts; OAT-F; OAT-C;-P-alt; D-alt. You have to wire it to your altitude encoder.

Looks nice, but pricey! Especially since I don't have a shunt in my plane so can't use the ammeter function, and rewiring to add a shunt is a pain.
Thanks, though!

Again, nice but would require new wiring and pricey. All I need is a voltmeter...
Thanks!

Are you willing to make an adapter plate?

Hundreds of other options, if that one doesn't do it for you.
