i was wondering about that. Big thank you on that!!

 

Good call Cusser........I know some have tried to hang that metal bypass tube first and then put the intake on over it. I just figure that it's common sense that you don't do that!

 

About 15 years ago I pulled and sold an intake manifold from the parts yard to someone who had broken his installing that incorrectly. Of course, "if" his didn't break upon assembly, there would've been a huge coolant leak !

 

Weber conversion all done. Fired up. All I need to finish is a header.

 

Looking good! I don't know where to find a new header these days.......2 years ago you could by them at 20 different online sources.......not now!

 

Scored a header and delivered the truck to my dad. We will paint the truck in coming months. thanks to all who helped.

Great !

 

The coolant sensor has stopped working since i took out the EGR system. I did not cut out all the harnesses. Are there any tricks to finding the lead for coolant sensor or should i just rerun wires to dash cluster? Thanks,
BJ

 

The coolant sensor for the dash coolant temperature gauge is located on the thermostat housing, and it is a single (yellow if I remember correctly) wire connector that plugs into it.

Here is a pic of the sensor circled in red.

 

Yes, that's the sender for the coolant temperature gauge. That wire (might be yellow with white stripe) can become disconnected. If it won't stay on, I believe a female bullet connector can be used. Here's another of Axel's photos.
