Hello people,Long time no post, I have been building a boat.
I decided to build myself a 5 m aluminium boat 4mm base 3 mm sides fully sealed deck, side rear console. I have fitted it with a new 90hp honda.When the dealer fitted the motor he fitted the tilt gauge and the tacho, but no fuel gauge, He just left that (without all the fitting pieces)on the floor of the boat.
That was just one of the crap fitting things he did. He also threaded one of the srews that holds the hydralic steering into the console and .... anyway back to the chase.....
On my wiring loom at the console end there are a couple of plastic fittings (sort of oval plug) that fit into the fuel gauge. I would like to fit the gauge (if I can get the plastic holder thing) Any idea what colour wire I attach the tanks sender to? I am assuming one wire is sender the other wire is ground so I will take the ground direct to battery?
There are 4 pins in my loom connector and four wires. Off the fuel sender are two wires, one has an s on the top of the fuel tank end I think ( I have to cut the carpet and have a look)
Any help would be appreciated. Ideas on where I might get the plastic fitting holder also appreciated.
Anyone have a new 90 fitted? How many gauges did they fit?
Had the motor fitted for 1000.00 Money wasted in my mind. Side cover for the throttle control not fitted, wired the thing contrary to my advice and now there are wires battery cables and steering hoses in four different spots going everywhere... apprentice on drugs must have fitted it up.Going to fire her up next weekend.
For some reason I cannot add a pic of the baot. Sorry. I was going to use it as a bribe to get the info...
