Default Aircraft style manifold pressure/vaccum tape gauge.

Yes, my washer tank has a leak in it.

<center><img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/102607/img_3334.jpg"></center><p>Its a digital gauge that has digital bars to show units of boost/vacuum. Each bar corresponds to a specified amount of boost/vacuum, I do not know the exact value. Vacuum is shown as the top part of the gauge, boost going towards the bottom. Its pretty faint in this picture but you can see the bars are going up and filling the gauge from the halfway point. When they are going in the other direction, its boost.

Why is this preferable to a regular boost gauge that shows both vacuum and boost?

I dunno, I never said it was. I have an analog, and I think Tom said it came on his car
