oil gauge

Dashboard lubricant meter

An oil gauge is an instrument that measures oil level or pressure, typically found on vehicle dashboards or machinery.

It monitors the lubricating oil in an engine, alerting operators to low levels or pressure drops that could cause damage: The oil gauge showed pressure dropping, so I pulled over immediately.
