    Starting my 75 FJ40 install a few days ago…. Waiting on the coolant sensor adapter for the top of the head. I can visualize every step of what you’ve done now by just gazing into the engine compartment. By the way, that little 3/8” drive Milwaukee impact gun came in real handy for pulling the fuel tank. Using an in-tank Mosley pump. Great enjoyable video my west coast inspiration friend

    You should check out installing riv nuts with just a bolt that fits it and a larger nut around it and 2 wrenches. One tightening the bolt to compress it and one on the large nut to keep it straight. It is easier to get them in tighter places and keeps them straight.

    • @projectwrongway9127
      @projectwrongway9127  3 года назад

      That is sound advice for installing in cramped places. I'll look into it.

    Not sure if that’s a one wire or two wire sensor, but don’t put plumbers tape on one wire sensors, they Earth to the block through the threads ;)
    That was the drain bung for the block, located at the bottom, which is why it still had coolant in it

    Actually tightening a bolt first often makes it easier to undo.

    BTW, where would a man find one of those O2 sensor pre-drilled flanges?

    • @projectwrongway9127
      @projectwrongway9127  3 года назад +1

      The O2 sensor I used came with the kit from Mosley. I stopped by an exhaust shop when I got the header and had them weld on a "bung" for me. Totally glad I did that.

  • @TheSteveyardbird

    Quick question, the install of temp sensor, has it leaked at all? I was just informed those threads are not NPT but British Pipe Thread, very close on pitch but not 3/8 NPT. There is an adapter for the head and the sensor on redline cruisers.

    Hello big fan of your videos I just had a question about your cruiser. Does it have the 1F or 2F? I’ve got a 74 with the 1F and just ordered the Holley Sniper kit and I was wondering if you did have the 1F was the kit from Mosley complete? I’ve seen on Red line where they sell the cleaner group adapter for the 1F that mounts to the sniper.

    • @projectwrongway9127
      @projectwrongway9127  Год назад +1

      Mine is the 2F with a 1F intake, I’m not sure what kit it was but I believe it was probably geared towards the earlier intake I was using.
