Never seen a cover over one but will have a look at another one I seen in the junkyard soon to buy for spare parts n gon wrap the wire n throttle cable up with wire wrap

Here’s how I did mine. I wrapped electric tape around the tubing by the controller too.

On a update one of my batteries was shot been wondering since I bought the truck a bout the rear end n limited slip, now I have got on it a lil before n burnt some rubber but only the passenger side rear tire will spin then both will hook dumb to do though our trucks are not made for this.

Just had a rough bet from a gas burner telling me 7.3 won't burn rubber but always thought that it was like pure posy track where one will review up then the other like setting a spider gear or welding two gears to make it that way or am I wrong n missing something

I’ve got a couple spare engine harnesses if you need to replace anything.

I'm interested but have no cash of my own just my wife is working right now I was in the middle of a job scraping metal n such before this, about roughly how much would this cost n could it be found if in scrapyard, I've did a search in auto parts store but just shows a bunch of crap haven't looked at.rockauto though

Two weeks of racking my brain as to why truck would not start after gp controller replaced wires covered by electrical tape n a piece of garden hose father in laws/ old school drag race auto guy did two blem batteries then one new one blew a blem one up, rookie mistake the ole girl is running.

New battery was half dead last night after temps here was in lower 40's f temp which has me confused, used a ole school lil gasoline on rag close to air filter had no ether cranked right over, lost compression old diesel for ya

So I lucked in to two brand new batteries any still working a way for a push button for gp's and now one battery is leaking an only shows 4v as voltage it was passenger side battery drivers side still good both was 850 cold crank my lil brother threw me a bone on batteries, what would make a battery leak as after setting it on the truck after a day.

The weather here has been lower 50's upper 40's all but tonight it's 31, so wouldn't expect battery to be like that.

Quick question as well id I was to have my motor completely over hauled roughly how much would it cost per parts since my little brother has a diesel hook up, just wanted a spitball idea
