Fuel Sender Wire Firewall Pass Through? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Where is the correct spot? Mine is snuck through by another grommet, obviously in the wrong spot. There is a small grommet on the wire near the fusebox end, but I don't see a hole for it anywhere. Where is it supposed to exit the cab?

To the right of the fuse box connecter, there is a vertical row of five dimples, s/b the second one down

Thanks, I'll look for it. In the engine bay, or inside? Any idea on hole diameter in case I need to drill?

Measure the inside diameter of your grommet. I use a stepper drill to get the exact hole size.

Look in the engine bay side, easier access....

Can anyone confirm this location before I break out the drill? Wonder what happened here? Maybe it's a Friday truck

That grommet in the rug pic is what is supposed to be in the firewall

And no, it is supposed to be one dimple up

Bottom dimple is for the tach wire
