QUESTIONS:
Which version, air core or mechanical, would be most compatible with a 1973 VW Super Beetle?
Thank you for your question. An air core or mechanical gauge can work with that engine, but I would recommend going with an Air Core electric gauge. A mechanical gauge would have you running a nylon or copper tube filled with oil from the engine in the rear of your car all the way up to the gauge. With an electric gauge you just need to run a piece of wire from the sensor to the back of the gauge.

Per previous question/answer on adaptor fittings for 2242. Install pdf says Auto meter has braided steel line. What is the product #? Is there a bracket for this sender to mount to firewall?
We have a couple different options for braided stainless steel line, like the 3227, that you could choose from. Just search "Braided" and it will show you some options. As for the bracket, we do not have one designed for the 2242.

Bought this gauge in a group with a cluster panel made for Dodge Sweptlines and it included sending unit (2242). 318 engine Current sender on rear of engine near coil. 2242 is much larger diameter/will not fit. Is there a compatible smaller sender?
The 2242 is the only correct sender for this gauge. Clearance issues can typically be resolved with pipe extensions as well as pipe angle fittings.

what would I need to order to mount the sending unit remotely for a 350 Chevy V8?
This article will explain more in detail, but we do have braided stainless steel kits that you can use to remote mount the sending unit: https://www.autometer.com/blog/faq-post/remote-mounting-oil-pressure-senders-why-and-how/

I have this oil gauge and it works when the engine oil is cold (engine just started and for the first 20 minutes or so); then it goes to zero at idle, but goes back up again to normal when under acceleration. Would it be the sending unit on the motor? Thx

Is the "pressure sender." a pressure sending unit? And is it included? If not what's the part number for it? "Gauge kit includes 1/8” NPT pressure sender, 1/4” NPT adapter," Thanks
Pressure sender or sending unit can be used interchangeably. This gauge includes our 2242 sender.
