Volts and vacuum, two of the most useless things to monitor of all. Vacuum will tell you is that ur engine sucks harder the more you put your foot down. Volts will really only show that your alternator works but hey isn't there a light for that?
Personally I'd be monitoring oil pressure and oil temp if I was going to monitor anything.
Each to their own I guess.

the gauge will have red and yellow power wires like a radio power and memory wire setup

Have you tried reading the instructions that came with your gauges? If you require a link to a downloadable service manual with wiring diagrams for the VT-VZ send me a PM.

learn how to read a vacuum gauge and you will find they are a very informative gauge to have. lol that it tells you your engine sucks harder...

do you have both red and orange connected to switched power.run constant power to orange and switched power to red if that doesnt work swap red to constant orange to switched.white will be dimmer off dash lights.
