   Be VERY, VERY Careful here my dash gauge is reading .3 bar LOW, and this 
   is confirmed by my Aircraft Manifold Pressure Gauge.

I second that warning, with my lament over the 15PSI VDO gauge that was
very accurate all the way up to about 11PSI, and refused to register
over 12PSI !!!

To paraphase some worthy folkore: If something seems to be wrong, it
probably is . . . 

My experience with the stock UrQ manifold pressure gauge is that it is
fairy accurate, being purely mechanical, but is not very precise (too small
and not calibrated, it's only a "guideline" to the manifold pressure arena,
not an "approach-the-hairy-limits" reference gauge.
