Well, this makes a total of three vans gauges that have cr*pped out on me in less than 200 hours of use:
1. The oil pressure gauge, which I reported here.
2. My tachometer randomly quits working (and then comes back). I have spent hours trying to figure out why.
3. Today, the Manifold pressure gauge is not working correctly.
I noticed after reaching altitude (3500') this morning (nice 66 degrees) that I only indicated 17 inches of MP.
After completing the flight and shutting down the engine, instead of reading the local barometric pressure, 29.80, the thing only went up to 20"!
Has anyone else had these kind of problems with Vans gauges? I'm starting to wonder about the other ones.
Just FYI
