  1. I have my trans temp sensor in the tans pan, my 70 runs 190° in this location but I do have an external cooler along wit the stock cooler. I want to say my top line is connected to the external cooler and then it goes back to the metal line to the trans.

  2. That style of battery allows to the added connection. Had one like that in a 00 Chevy pickup and the side post stopped acting as a good - so we added a - cable to the top. In your niece's case or yours the positive cable has had the end changed on it to a clamp style and then someone brought a red cable (could have been the only color on the shelf) to be a neg cable.  Over the years people replace batteries, battery cables with what was available at the stores. I usually go with the most cold cranking amps (CCA) due to all the add on's ie: power windows, power door locks, keyless entry, power trunk plus it helps to turn the mini starter over quicker.

  3. I know I have been kinda quiet on the forum lately and I wish I didn't need prayers and thoughts at this time of the year. As of early this afternoon my father passed away. Some of the people who go to the eastern meet might remember him. So please keep my family in your prayers as we start the never fun part.  :cry2:  :cry2:  :cry2:  :cry2:  :cry2:

  4. Roger you can always change the end. I don’t recall what the end at the transmission looks like. What happens to a lot of the connections is they wear over time which causes them to lose their firm connection. Is it’s a spade connection you would need to crimp the other end to take up the play.

  5. Scott I believe the other sensor works with the spark knock. I've seen both the slip on connection and the stud and nut. If you had the dummy light dash then you would just have a water light. But since you have the gauge style dash there is no warning light just the gauge. What you could do is trace the passenger sensor wire back through the harness and see where it goes it could be the sensor failed in the drivers head and someone added the passenger side one and tied it in further into the harness.
