I used very very thin stainless wire that can be found at hobby/craft shops or
maybe flower shops (dont ask). I simply pulled the factory connector - inserted
the small wires leaving an inch or two hanging out - and put the connector back on
(was tighter). I had to try several different gauge wire before I found one small
enough. This was the only way I could see to read the values with engine running
- measuring what the computer was seeing under all conditions. I tried to back
probe the connectors with hat pins but they kept coming out due to vibration from
engine running. When I get back home (currently on a project in Memphis) I'll try
and get the #s for ya. They worked great as places to clip my alligator clip
equipped voltmeter probes to.
Hope this helps,
Shane
