Pyrometer problems
I bought a set of autometer cobalts from a member at another site. Well they sat around for a while, and last week I wrangled up all the parts I needed for the install.
I currently have Banks dynafact gauges, and eventually the Banks will get phased out when I get my tranny done.
Well, the Banks pyro is tapped in the manifold and the tap is bigger than the autometer pryo. Well just so happens I had an extra Banks pryo and pyro lead laying around. So I connected 2 leads from the pyro, one still goes to the 6 gun, the other I used to hook up to the new(used) cobalts. Well now for the question.
Leads are just wires right, it doesn't matter whether they are cut and spliced correct? I didn't have any luck soldering them, but when I hooked them up to the existing pryo and spliced them into the autometer harness the gauge did nadda.
So I spliced the original autometer pyro back to the autometer harness and put the propane torch to it. Still nothing.
So the question is, it should work if it is hooked up no matter what right? I mean both harnesses had yellow and red wires. So is it just the gauge that crapped out on me? Or am I just an idiot and ed up the harness?

Next onto the probe, is the brass gonna hold up to the heat? The bushing that the banks came with isn't brass, and the autometer probe isn't brass either.

There are a bunch of different types of thermocouples

Ok I read it. Does it say his Pyro will or won't work.
