Maybe someone will come along and say the proper way.
Cool thanks Glenn. I need to put As multi function switch in it, so when I do that I will pull the switch. It was a farm truck and had a lot of dirt/dust inside the lens of the cluster when we got it. So it probably does have some build up in there too.

I have a random question... how hot does the engine oil usually get? I'm trying to decide on what type of oil feed hose material for the pressure hose...I know Glenn and maybe Darrin have reported some numbers. Anybody???

Well hmm. the parker 801 hose is good to 247* I may see if they have any of the high temp hose. I think Im going to err on the side of caution.

Aaron, I just traced the wires back and changed them one at a time. I don't think you need a wiring schematic.

I just wanted to make double sure the first time. I knew the gp pins and injectors.wanted to make sure my commons were in the right place as in my head lol

Since it will be a little while till I fire it I just want to be 100% sure is all.



Thanks Darrin!!!

I understand that. Having all your bases covered like that will take a lot of stress away later on.
