I'm going to change over to mechanical oil temp, pressure, and water temp. What are the main advantages to the oil filled gauges? I can assume they are better with respect to vibration, but are there any other reasons to run them?

It allows folks like Ginsberg to be able to accurately read water temp, oil temp and oil pressure while off in the grass.
Thanks, I just spit my sandwich all over the keyboard.
Clean up on aisle 9...

Adam needs them while spinning in the grass.
Corey needs them while racing thru the grass.
Marshall you don't really need them, I have the AutoMeter Ultra-Lites and they have worked fine for the last four years. I think the oil filled are designed for Off-road or high vibration situations. I know that Todd has them in his Ranger, I asked him once in the past about them... I don't remember what exactly he said but I ended up getting the Ultra-Lites and they are fine.
