    Neutral Safety Switch

    Does this tab go under/inside the column to help hold it in place somehow? I have an 82 C10 that I’m fighting putting this new switch on. I can get everything into place and plugged in fine.

    No temp gauge after swap

    My son and I recently put a 383 in our 85. The 305 was getting tired. Before the swap all the gauges worked. Now we have fuel and oil pressure only.
