I have a question for Tracy and/or Ed. on pressure gauge calibration.
I am confused when it comes to calibrating the instruments
I have the Motorola MPX 4250 pressure sensors for my intake manifold and
turbo pressures.
I want to calibrate the gauges in inches.

The Question:  Do I start at sea level at (29.92") or at Zero
I think that the confusion comes from the automotive vacuum gauges that
start at zero at sea level pressure and get 30" at full vacuum.

Thanks

Rino
