Temp Gauge Wire

[michaelbr1]

Okay, I've removed the oil injection systems and warning modules and installed some temp gauges.<br /><br />If the tan wire going to the warning horn under the instrument console is not being used for anything, is there any reason why I shouldn't be able to disconnect it from the engine and use it to go from the temp sender to the gauges? The wire is in pretty good shape, and I wouldn't have to pull new wire.

Mich, Can't see no reason not to use an existing wire.just document it in your manual so you don't forget what you did.

Re: Temp Gauge Wire

You are talking virtually no current for a temp gauge. Should be no problem at all. I used a spare for a relay to an electric fuel pump and it works fine.
