Re: Engine temp sending unit

Thank you very much. I've been looking all over the place and haven't been able to find what it looks like. I wasn't sure if I just wrapped a wire around it or what. Will this work for a 1969 c20?

I suspect it would. I am thinking the wire goes into the terminal block at the firewall with one of these

Re: Engine temp sending unit

You can probably pickup the connector at a parts store. Also in a pinch you can use a regular female blade connector. Just spread it open a tad and it will slip right over.

Re: Engine temp sending unit

I appreciate all of the help. Going to order the parts soon. Just picked up a new radiator, heating core, thermostat, and temperature sending unit.
