What is this plug?
Oh the joys of buying a classic.....
So, Im trouble shooting my reverse lights because they aren't working (I'll start a thread for that) and I find this random plug dangling on top of the bell housing. I pulled it up top for pics and I dont see anything it could have connected to. What is this? Its a pretty big plug for something just hanging there. 1983 Scottsdale 250 L6 swapped to a 350. In case that helps. |

Oil pressure switch? not the sender, but a switch for another feature?

Well, the gauge works. It moves when I rev it so I dont think it would be that.

I found the same (similar?) plug near my starter when I swapped transmissions...I couldn't remember where it went...I couldn't remember unhooking it...i thought it had something to do with my truck not starting...but my no-start was a completely unrelated problem. So now it's just dangling by my starter, not connected to anything. My truck is a '78 250 |

Re: What is this plug?
what about an electric choke for the I6 that used to be in there?

It's the oil pressure switch hookup for the 250ci 6 cylinder with an idiot light, not a gauge.

Thats good to know. That means the gauge cluster has been changed out or something because I have an oil pressure gauge. Thanks. |
