new intake pics and a few tech questions

Post by tdub88 »

here's a pic of the intake so far. still rough around the edges but getting there. O.k. now a couple of questions that anyone please feel free to help with. The second pic is of the infamous driver side coolant flange (that has a small leak ofcourse). Does the coolant temp sender plug in here anywhere? the temp gauge on this car does not work along with the fuel gauge. Does anyone know how to install your own gauge for temp? The next pic is of the headlights that i am hving problems with. they are H4 bulbs. i dont think this the correct harness or connectors. anyone???anyone????ImageImageImageImage

how do you mean? :smoke: before you hopefully dont go into detail about the ABD and how its really just pulling in more hot air and what not read my other post. i know this. the ABD was a gift from someone that really hoped i "could use it". so i did. i kept the ISV intact to keep it simple. this is my ''family everyday driver", not trying to turn times, or go crazy with it...............yet. lol p.s. can u help with temp gauge?

Ok man, I noticed two things.

That's your oil temp sensor, and there should be a blue? wire going to it.

That's your coolant temp sensor! Now where's the plug that goes to it?
