I took down the diamond plate dash, and there's tons of wires back there.. as well as a rotted @$$ cowl vent that looks like it's about to fall off. :ep
But back to the wires, it looks as if the PO didn't hack it up too much back there.
I have noticed two things.
#1. The current oil pressure gauge/sending unit. I didn't see an individual sending unit. Only the gauge itself. There's a steel line going from the engine through the firewall and from that a smaller steel line that connects directly to the gauge. And there's some oil leaking (not a lot, but wires are a little oily) from the back of the gauge. This is an aftermarket cheapo gauge from Auto Zone (I recognized it on the shelf before). Is this some sort of combo gauge/sending unit?
I guess either way I'm going to have to figure out a way to put on the unit that came with the dash.
#2. There's no speedometer cable. :sad After several google searches I was able to figure out where it's suppose to be going through the firewall and nada. Just the hole there. My question about that is can I just go to an auto parts store and get any cable or do I specifically need one for a 66 mustang w/a 302?
