Fellas, ladies..what's happening?!!. I hope everyone's coolin' and ready for a chill weekend. The other day my partner Mathmatic posted a thread on installing the gauges. There was some good helpful info from those who responded, but I have a few questions along with some pics I've snapped of what I think are temp sensors on my Olds 307 to see if you guys could give me a hand. I'm planning to pick up a Auto Meter 3-gauge cluster (oil press., water temp, voltage) on the way home and get started maybe tonite. I recently changed my heater core, radiator and thermostat and want to be able to know the car's running the way it should, so I figured I'd get these gauges kragenoff..

I read the instructions youngdeezy left on Mathematic's thread but first..

1. where is the ignition where the voltage line is wired to? Can you post a pic?

2. Is this the water temp sensor?

3. These are both to the right of the water neck..one on left has a green wire going to it..the one on right has a yellow & black wire going to it.

4. Where is the oil pressure sensor/send on the 307? Can someone possibly post a pic of what I'll be looking for?
 
The oil pressure sensor is in the FIRST pic you posted. It is the one wire sensor just behind the water pump next to your casting numbers. The temp sensor to the guage is the two wire sensor on your intake manifold, closest to the water neck.
