Bob has started to ship the units priority mail. You will receive the tracking number once it is boxed up. The first 30 units should be shipped by Monday.

Thanks for your patience

David.
I just received my 914 dip stick gauge & thanks for everything.
Looks good, haven't installed it yet, but assume it fits the hole?? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/av-943.gif)
I am a little surprised about the dial size, I was thinking it would be larger. No problem, I just need to put my glasses on.

USPS tracking claimed I would receive mine today but it doesn't look very promising

Hi David,
Interesting, my needle is parking in the same location. I was wondering if it was a defect. Ok, now it's normal & same as yours.

Really great purchase.
Thanks,
Tom

PM 's have been sent to the participants of the first run. I will give everyone a week to order. Because I anticipate that some people will change their mind and not order I will send payment instructions to those next in line. As far as a second or third run Bob has not yet committed.

Thanks

David


I will get a final count and notify the next people in line tomorrow. I will also inquire about a second run.

Sounds like he needs to be thinking about maybe a third run, too.

GA, who tossed hit hat into the ring via PM some time ago...

I believe it would park at ambient temperature unless engine is at temperature from use.

Got mine today. My only complaint is that it does not measure low enough to show actual temp during winter..... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

I just sent a PM to a few more members with the payment instruction for the dip stick temperature gauges because a few of the members never ordered theirs.

It looks very favorable that there will be a second run

I have always wanted one of these but when I contacted Mainely by design he had no more and was not sure if he was going to even make any more. I have gotten enough interest that he is willing to make another run of 50. Originally he told me that I needed to get 24 members to commit. Well I now have 33 members who have expressed interest.

The current price is 49.95 and after the group buy the price will be going up.

Bob is about 3 weeks before all of his subcomponents will arrive and he can start building the parts for us. Please hold tight once he is ready to ship I will post payment instructions.
