Thank you David for the info. I looked briefly last night. I think I 
will take some pictures of the wires I have and post to see if that 
helps. I could not find a solid yellow wire for the cylinder head 
o.p. I do have the blue/black I attached to the oil filter sender but 
did not attach anything to the head pressure sender since I don't see 
a solid yellow. My a/c wiring is in limbo. I want to remove the steel 
lines just to get them out of the way so I need to find out how to 
eliminate the senders on the front steel line. I do have 2 coolant 
senders. The one on the front of the head that comes from the top of 
the radiator that has 2 electrical connection points and the one on 
the side of the head that has the water line going into the firewall. 
Is that the glow plug sender?
I think the wiring on this thing is going to be a challenge. The p.o. 
has the fuse panel hanging down and none of the electric windows work 
with wiring scabs etc. I need to get the gauges straightened out 
before moving on.

Thanks again,

Bart
