Ford pyro mount question

[SVazquez]

My buddy has a '97 PS. Sat. we are installing gauges. We looked all over some of the Ford sites but could not find any info on the best place to tap for the pyro. I bet my buddy $10. 00 that there would be people on this site w/ the knowledge of the correct spot and gracious enough to pass it on. I know, I know, he hasn't left the dark side but you still have to help out your friends, ya know?



Can anyone help me out?

Thanks,

Scott

do you mean for the probe or the power wires? if its the probe i would put in the passenger side manifold (supposed to be the easier one i think) that turbo is nothing short of impossible to get around to put one there. i to understand your pain :-laf i live with a die hard psd lover that thinks that they will spank on a dodge any day, but he wont race any trucks equiped like his, just a programer and exhaust, and a new $1800!!!!!!! turbo ,that didnt do squat :-laf they will never learn.

The last stroke that I did, I put the probe in the collector where both exhaust pipes meet before going into the turbo. A long drill bit and a magnet to catch all the pieces and then a 3' extension with the tap on the end of it. I stood outside of the truck and tap'd the threads. Then used this same extension setup with a socket to put the probe fitting in.

Everything is tucked back nice and neat and clean...
