Bits and Peices some part numbers and ideas

Postby Monza Harry » Tue Feb 02, 2016 4:58 pm

Here is some sender numbers for those of you with newer cylinder heads and those :censored: :cuss: smaller 3/8"NPT sender ports as opposed to the original 1/2" NPT ones. this is for the light, thanx go to a recent Hot Rod Mag. article

There are others Temps [and threads] available but this is similar to stock. The one for the gauge comes from an '80 Monza with a 2.5L I found this by searching Summits site for Monza with no filters other than gauges and lots of reading the numbers supplied.

And here are the shortcuts to these on Summit's site. Light http://www.summitracing.com/int/parts/lng-43252 Gauge http://www.summitracing.com/int/parts/s ... odel/monza I wired my Oil pressure switch in a few months back, but I had to come up with an idea for marking the wires for reconnection after a previous owner had, [or had done] cut the oil pressure plug wires for the fuel pump off to fix a faulty switch. Oh yes the cut them flush so there was no turning back, so while perusing Rock Auto's site I see a heading for connectors under electrical and click. and TaDa! http://www.rockauto.com/catalog/moreinf ... 477&jpid=0 So when it shows up the wires or terminal aren't marked, so after a quick H-Body search I find the terminal layout. Now I have to come up with a way to mark these wires in Blue, Pink, and Purple I have Blue electrical tape and heat shrink but Pink and Purple I can't find anywhere. So while walking through the dollar store I spot some nail polish in all kinds of garish colours, only two bucks each and my wire marking worries are over. So while watching TV I pull out my Connector and Nail Polish, find my cheat sheet from H-Body mark my wires and the next day (Ok somewhat soon after) I proceed out to the car and hook it up with out fighting unmarked wires. May this give you ideas to solve your hard to reach/see wiring issues. Harry

And here are a few in car pic's if I was to do this again I would have found the clear heat shrink and covered the nail-polish with that instead of painting the outside of the wire/heat shrink. No real problem as I get to move it when I go V8 Space was tight for me in there. I have other pic's but they don't show much else. I have no idea why I never shot a pic of it finished and installed I guess I can always amend this thread later. Harry

Use crimps like the one on the right without an insulator sleeve and also solder. ;)

This is temporary until I V8 this thing, ok a couple of years temporary. I have a lot to sort out and not much play time for this now. Un-insulated, crimped soldered, and dual wall heat shrink is my go to connection of choice, I have to make sure that this is the only problem someone was "camouflaging", as well this is easier to undo if necessary for some unknown issue.
