IS there any reason I can't use the temp sender in the side of the head of the 6 cylinder instead of the one in the T stat housing?
I have beat the search section to death and even went to all the other sites linked to questions here - even all the diagrams here in the FAQ and my manuals...
I have found NO wiring diagrams for the six cylinder that show the Tranmission Control Spark wiring (head temp sensor and high gear sensor to make carb choke out a bit - that's in a nut shell).
I need to know where:
A) the wiring is routed from BOTH temp sensors, to the bulkhead connector and then where inside the truck.
B) the two wires to the 1 brl. carb come from/go - one is the idle solenoid and I can't name the other thing.... (1972)
I've looked all over the web, hit the end and I'm on my way back.

Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks all.

No offsense Corn, just needed a bigger audience
