[Amc-list] Connecting wire / terminal to fuel snding unit

["Bruce Griffis" <bruce.griffis@xxxxxxxxx>]

I checked the wire that goes into he connector that attaches to my
fuel sending unit. The wire is cut, and not making contact - therefore
the fuel gauge doesn't work. I tried stripping a small section of the
wire, popping it into a wire terminal, crimpoing it - then attaching
that to the connector on the fuel sending unit. It looks like there is
a current (the fuel guage now moves a little bit when I turn the key)
- but it doesn't change when I add fuel to the fuel tank. I'm guessing
I just messed up the terminal.

Is there any "trick" to it? Should I use a specific connector? Is
something like the original connector (looks like a seriously
unersized spark plug boot) available? Or should I simply double check
where I stripped the wire, crimped to the connector then attached to
the sending unit?
