sensors..
hey guys i just about have the 305 tbi out and i am ready for the 350 carbed engine, well i have noticed many sensors and i need to know witch ones stay when i take out the computer and wut ones don;t. well theres the temperature sensor on the passenger side head that i eplaced a while ago and anitfreeze came out so does that one stay? also there is somthing above where the oil filter goes, and on the drivers side head there is sumtin and on the frint of the intake manifold, this one confuses me cause isn;t it another temp sensor?? oh and guys remember i am switchin to carb from tbi so i am takin ut the computer, i just need all my guages to work and stuff. thanks guys
All you really need is your temperature sending unit which is probably running from your driver side head, and your oil pressure sending unit which is what i believe you are referring to located about the oil filter. It is found in three rear of the block right behind the intake manifold. I ripped my crap out a long time ago, but if my memory serves me correct there is emmission crap in the inake manifold attached to your thermostat housing. Why don't you do it this way... Figure out what you want to keep. Mark em and take everything else out and plug em.
