1 They are both temp sending units. One should be for the ECM and the other for the gauge/light.

2 I am thinking they are 5/16 thread.

3 You should be able to use the smaller sender, just make sure it matches what it needs to do, whether its a light or gauge.

4 the best thing to do is get a new wire end and splice it in.

You put s screwdrive thru the block? Your gonna need a new block soon. If the rest of the truck is as rusty as the block I think you may need to take a closer look at your frame. I suspect there is some hidden rot that you have not seen yet.
