Something was still amiss....pedal travel versus clutch engagement didn't feel right, like the last 1/4 of pedal travel was pointless.
Adjusted in every manner possible to correct, but, if starting a few inches from the end of pedal travel and working backwards, the clutch pedal sat well lower than brake.....didn't feel right.
So, rounded up the correct MC for the body and clutch pedal/pedal bucket. Note the 3/4" casting.
First tried to calculate the differences.....
which took longer than it would've to just swap the damn MCs, but, pretty much, the stroke of the BJ and HZ varies and think that and the different bores impact pedal "feel".
Mounted up the BJ MC and was a dramatic improvement than previous, but still a dramatic increase in the amount of pedal pressure with the HD clutch.
Hooked up the HZ senders, but at full operating temp, at idle, gauges barely register.
Tried an 12V FZ/HZ coolant passage sensor for temp and nominally improved.
According to DIY, the 12V VM utilized a 3FE water temp sensor, so guess that's next.
Try an FZ oil pressure sender, too, but don't know what to expect there.
Tried and partially suceeded with glow plug temp sensor, but it doesn't seem to override the timed relay every time.
Still don't know how the resistor factors in, but VM harness has only the block temp sensor, anyway.
