Hey guys I need to know what color wires in the factory harness that go to the oil psi sending unit and water temp. And also the tack. I think it's green and yellow?. I have a 88 Eddie bower bronco ii that's 2wd and a carbed v8 I want todo away with all aftermarket gauges and run the factory ones. Thanks in advance

Ford used Green wire for tach signal from Coil "-" to dash

Temp sender and Oil switch/sender wire will be the Ground for its gauge.
With key on, if you Ground the wire the gauge will go all the way up.

Not sure on the color of these, Red/white stripe for temp and white/red stripe for oil

Thanks buddy I'm gonna ground those colored wires out tonight see what ones I need. As far as the tac go's I have a msd ignition. I might need a tac adapter module.

Hook up the Green Ford tach wire to the Tach port on the MSD and see if tack reads correctly, if not then you may need the adapter.

But since you are using a V8 with a V6 tach I doubt it will read correctly in any case.
