Just a Question

Hi,

I have a 93 F250 7.3L diesel with an auto. transmission.
I was wondering if anyone knows of a place that sales hour
meters for diesels.
Also, how would you go about wiring it to the truck.

Thanks,
Richard.

Any auto parts store has 12 volt hour meters. Most will have several different styles, shapes, and cutout sizes to choose from. Connect (+) to any fuse panel circuit that is always hot with engine running and always dead with engine off. I think anything coming off fuses #1 or #17 will work, just make sure it's not hot with the key in the "ACC" position, or you'll be running up hours while parked with the radio on. Mine is paralleled off the Overdrive Cancel wire (red w/ yellow stripe) because it was in a convenient location in the dash. Connect (-) to any good sheet metal ground behind the dash.
