Don't know about what you have there, but that mechanical gauge from Toolstation went out with the Ark IMO. Been many years since I have seen one. They had a tendency of the float not moving and the tank being empty when the gauge indicated plenty oil.
Apollo oil tank remote gauge would be handy

I like the apollo ones.

Yes. They are so easy to fit and seem reliable.
I personally would rather not have any oil gauge and just take a look into the tank every few weeks. :smile:
Oil tube gauges are very popular here, but risky things in many respects and tubes need replaced often.

+Lots for the apollo.

Easy to fit and configure.

That looks like an overfill prevention device! When the oil reaches the float it blocks the inlet and stops more being put in.
