Re: 2 for 1 Part II...
Worked on the truck again last night to get the connector made up and the wires run for the fuel sender and fuel pump. The sender I used had a 2 way Weather Pack connector on it already installed. So, I got on jegs and ordered a couple of connector kits, some gray wire (to match the existing connector's wire color for the fuel pump), and some terminal removal tools.
I got the correct connector and terminals installed on the wires and connected to the plug on the sensor harness under the truck. I ran the wires along the frame and up into the engine bay. I did all this in the dark using a Ryobi work light that Korbin got for Christmas. Once I got that far, I was cold and called it a night on the truck.
While I was in the truck mood, I pulled out my spiral where I am keeping track of expenditures on this project. With the seat and junk yard purchases added in, I am at a total of $1161.40 cash out of my pocket. If I did not have the Auto Zone Rewards credits, a few gift cards, and the sale of a couple of parts, the total would be $1353.36.
Not bad so far. The weather is going to turn bad cold tomorrow, at this point I am not sure what will get done for awhile. Most of what is left is wiring under the hood and under the dash to swap out the instrument cluster.
