Connecting oil temp guage
« on: March 03, 2008, 06:10:27 pm »
I just finished intsalling a volt guage and an oil pressure guage (5 bar) and am wondering about where I can get the signal for the oil temp guage.

I know there are 3 senders on the side of the block (1 now that I replaced the top one with the oil sending unit, but I was wondering where I can get this reading from?

Is there already a sending unit on the motor?
If so, will disconnecting the stock wiring harness wire cause me any problems?

Thanks folks
