Hi Dave,
It was nice to hear things are busy for you. Attached are some photos of the panel and loom etc that you supplied to myself. Any help you can give me regarding connecting this up would be great.
Best regards
Ian McCuaig.

Hi Ian
You need to clear a day or two when you can work on this. If you are confident doing this work yourself you need some on site support, 12v will not give you a shock but can cause a fire.
The sensors are small one temp, fat one oil, third one revcounter and there should be a box with all the bits for the fuel sensor.
Take one wire at a time look at the back of the you are working on and you will see that there are three lugs one marked + one marked - and one marked 'S' that is the only one that you need to worry about. Follow that colour wire to the end and fit the sensor. You should be doing this at home with a cup of tea!
Once you have done that for all 4 gauges you should just have the start switch and the pos and neg. The start switch goes to the 85 lug on your relay. The pos needs to go through a 10amp fuse.

Once we are at that stage get back to me for the next installment but you should have a good idea of what is going where on your engine now.
