Alan:
The standard gauge you will find is 0 to 30". My boat runs at 0 with new
filters. I usually change them when they get to 7 or 8 inches. I discovered
that it was reading 15" once but the engine was still going strong. If you
could find a 0 to 20" it might be a little better but these would be hard
to find and I doubt if you would see much difference.
Racor has their vacuum gauge color coated Red for Normal 0-10", Caution
7-10" and Danger 10-15"
