Sorry if this is a dupe-post, but I need some ideas badly. I added BigMark's excellent quad gauge, but the car did not have a temp sender of the wiring. The car is a '71 with a 2.0 4 cylinder.
Before I could add the new taco plate, I had to remove my old plate/cover. I was amazed that the bolts were just a little bit more than finger tight. I added a used taco plate/sender and it was hemoraging oil after I refilled the oil. The only, 'my bad' was reusing the old crush washers (yes, I will get some new ones tomorrow). Second, trying to apply an even amount of torque to the bolts is next to impossible. The rest of the case is dry, so I would like to keep it that way.
Besides new crush washers, any suggestions on how to effectively seal it? Any goo to apply to the bolts, or? And how does one apply an equal amount of torque to the bolts - count each turn of the wrench? There must be a better way. HALP!
