Hi,
When i bought mij beetle, this temp gauge was attached tot the steering column. I searched for info about it, but i can't find anything.
It's from the company "Draeger".
Does anyone know more about this mysterious thing?
Gr. Erik. |

I've found that one, look like Koch or Störk but it's a Peritherm.
Any info?

I went thru the past 10 pages and didnt see this one. I picked it up from a bug many years ago, maybe a 61 I had, i dont remember. It fits in the fuel gauge opening perfect.

There is a red light in the top middle of the gauge that illuminates when the tank goes to reserve. |
Motest gauges are made by MotoMeter. I don't know why they marketed them under the Motest name because they are similar in size and function. Perhaps they sold them because the MotoMeter name was licensed to particular sources like VW and Porsche, and maybe this was a way to sell them to a larger market without legal problems.  Most of the Motest gauges I have seen have a date stamp post '55. (they will accept all MotoMeter senders)

This is just a theory but I think the Motest product tag was primarily put on USA market Motometer products. This would have been to prevent confusion or litigation due to one or more indigenous American products that had been called Motometer for a couple decades.

Here's a 60 mm VDO tach that I have. It's 12v and for a 4 cylinder 4 stroke engine, is in great condition and works accurately. It would be great if somebody could identify what car it came out of.
Thanks,
Chris |

It looks like a vacuum gauge, but the photo is too fuzzy to be sure. Looks to go from 0 to 1 Bar, equivalent to ~30 inches vacuum. |

|
|
Has anyone ever seen this Stork Oil Temp gauge? It is the mechanical dip stick style and it has a green light what the oil is to cold and a red light when the oil is to hot. When I got it the seller said it was NOS and the gauge holder came with the gauge and looks to have always been with the gauge. When you slide the gauge out of the holder there is clean ring around the gauge where the holder was.
