So i picked up a triple set of mechanical gauges for my 91 ranger 2wd, 8 plug, 2.3. I have water, oil, and volts but i am stumped on where to plum and wire them in. The temp sensor i was just going to T off of the ECT location but if that messed with the computer i will just T it off a heater hose. I was also wondering if there was another spot on my block to hook my oil gauge other that the original swith location (pain in the a$$ to get to). And finally on my alternator i cannot figure out with wire to tap into for my volt gauge. I have a 3 plug and 2 plug both leaving the alternator case. I have looked all over and cannot find any of this info so any help would be great. thanks!
