I have a combo gauge that I plan to install in place of das blinkin licht. It's a stock gauge with gas level on the bottom and the temp on the top. I have found (I believe) the wire under the battery tray that runs up and through the center console. I will test to make sure.
I am planning an oil change with this process. Anyway, I have a few questions before I do this. 1) Are there any tips or tricks to installing the sender and cover? 2) What are the torque settings for those 2 bolts. I know it's a sensitive area. 3) What gauge wire should I run from the sender to the harness in the engine bay? 4) What gauge wire from the harness between the seats to the gauge/dashboard. 5) Any other tips or tricks for those that have done this? Please let me know. TIA |
