Chapter 3 – Disassembly

Windscreen Wiper Motor and Wiper Box

Removed the three mounting bolts in the bottom of the wiper motor. Disconnected the three wires from the junction. Removed the lateral brace from the steering wheel column to the left body wall (two bolts). The three wires are green, green and black, and black and connect through the grommet hole below the choke hole in the firewall to the primary wiring harness. The two large chrome nuts are removed from the wiper box shafts and the shafts can be withdrawn under the dash. The motor and wiper boxes can be removed along with the connecting cable by sliding it above the steering wheel toward the passenger seat.

Water Temperature and Oil Pressure Gauge

Used a 5/8” box wrench with a slit in it to go around the capillary tube to loosen the nut around the sending unit on the engine head. Then withdrew the capillary hose through the grommet hole in the firewall below the I.D. plate. Loosened the oil pressure line from the back of the gauge and remove the gauge from the interior.
