Re: Yet Another Timing Question - FI


E - I know my engine is runnig hot because of the oil burning up and all the
smoike coming from the valve covers!!

As far as the wire goes - I have my tach cable running into the car thru the
hole right behind the battery.

Good luck - Wilson

I'm curious - how do you know it's running hot if you do not have an oil temp
gauge (other than the obvious loss of power or the blowing of your engine...)

Speaking of gauges, what is the best method for running additional wiring
back
to the engine compartment for tach, oil senders, etc.?  I remember the
previous
owner of my '67 had the wiring running on the bottom of the pan but that
seems
inadvisable.  I took a look under the rear seat for a hole and the only thing
I
could see that seemed plausible would be to run them through the hole/seal
where the battery to starter cable is.  Or drill another hole but I hate to
do
that... Any suggestions?>>
