    water pressure per vessle view mobile

    2016 proxs 200

    I was checking my water pressure with the vessel view and it said at idle I had 1psi but at full throttle it had 27 psi. It steadily increased as I accelerated from a dead stop. Does this seem correct?
    The water pressure gauge has never operated properly that's one reason I purchased the vessel view.

    You're missing a digit in your serial number.

    For an Optimax model, those numbers may very well be correct. Certainly would accept those over any analog gauge (especially one known not to work).
