Hi folks. Just picked up this truck and temp gage not working. Notice wire hanging down in engine compartment that is the color specified as the sending unit wire, but it's not hooked up to anything.

Where in the wide world of sports did they hide that sending unit???? Anyone know>? Pictures even??

Thanks!

Thibble

Look at the front of the intake manifold. It should be slightly under the no. 1 intake runner pointing forward.

Yes, on the underside where a mirror helps to find it.

Wish Al Gore had invented the internet before mine came off. I could have used this kind of help.

Have you resolved the temperature sending unit wires yet?
