Re: Let's Build A 1 Ton Crew Cab 4x4

Working on engine wiring. Thanks to my buddy it is turning out to look quite nice. Had to bring one piece into work this morning for some soldering because of damaged ends.



Since I elected to use the 6.5 fuel filter setup for now I had to clearance the bracket that mounts to it for the 6.2 vacuum pump.



Any way to clean up these glow plug wires? Also I am using a 6.5 dipstick & tube but it doesn't seem to jive well with the 6.2 manifolds. Do I need a 6.2 dipstick?



I also need a 45deg or 90deg adapter for the oil pressure switch 1/4 npt male to 1/8 npt female. Having a tough time trying to find one of those.

Also, I purchased a 88+ throttle cable b/c the bushing in mine was shot. It was a GM cable off ebay, I heard you could use them with slight modification. Ending up not fitting in my bracket so basically paid $30 for the line just to take the bushing out of it and put into my 80s 6.2 throttle cable. Also, is this really called the idle air control valve?



Few more parts to order this week. I need hydroboost lines, and the older style temp switches/sensor.
