You'll be driving by Memorial Day...as long as there isn't a late winter storm (remember i grew up in Iowa )

truck looks sweet!
Thanks! Yes, green grass here but in NW Iowa they had 10" of snow on Thursday. I quit giving myself deadlines....but I am registered and have all my hotels for the Hot Rod Power Tour. Hope that didn't curse me....

Yep, my workbenches end up the same way. I do most my work off my Nomad welding table as a result....

If you ground that wire out and its not working, could be a relay wiring issue. I'd check your fan power wire to make sure that gets power when you have your sending unit wire grounded. I do highly doubt your fan isn't working, but if you have power to that wire then it could be the case. also make sure you have enough fluid in the system as those sending units will not kick on if fluid isn't on them.
I have a list of things to check, can't be anything major. Worst case is the tune in the ECM didn't include that, then I'll have to find someone to make that change.

Thanks!

Mirrors are mounted now. It is very satisfying to take parts out of boxes that were stored in the bed, install them, and throw the boxes in the recycle bin!
