the wireing is not that bad, its a completely stock j10 straight 6 engine, it starts and runs fine, all the lights work. has power steering and brakes. my problem is getting the gas gauge to work, the gauge is 59 the tank and sender is 59. the only stuff that dont work is the instrument cluster, wiper motor and blower motor. the wireing diagram in the haynes manual is useless, i just need to find the wires from the temp.,amp. the tank was full of rust i took it out, washed it out, put a couple hand fulls nails, nuts, and bolts in it and shook it up real good then washed it again. putting it back in today. the sender and gauge seem to be good useing my ohm meter on the bench. i have know way of knowing witch side of the gauge to hook the sender to and witch side to hook the 12 volts. ive tried it both ways on the bench with a battery and the needle jumps to full either way, and yes i grounded the sender and cluster houseings. this aint my first rodeo, my first woods car was a 1940 chevy when i was 12. ive never been to a mechanic in my life. when i got the truck the clutch was stuck to pressure plate, so i took it all out, turned the flywheel, replaced clutch, pressure plate, and bearing, the front seal was leaking on the tranny so i got a overhaul kit and rebuilt it. i just put it all back in yesterday. also this week i built a th350 tranny to replace the piece of junk 700r in my 89 Z71. that i'll put in next week. i exspect to be driveing the 59 by this weekend, gas gauge or know gas gauge. even the speedo works.
