Hello all,

I have the gen 2 fuel head and wiring kit, but there is no instruction for it. I am pretty sure somebody did a write up on how to do the replacement, but search came back with nothing... Please help with the link or advice. Thank you all in anticipation.

I don't think there's a writeup - because it consists of soldering 2 wires.

match the size - colors are weird - but it's 12 volts - electrons going in one side come out the other

not a real worry if you reverse them. (in Texas it'll run without the fuel heater - but it'd be a problem in Canada)

Kits I've seen have 2 identical sets of wires, don't know why; a new plug; and an odd blue clip. Slid the wires into the plug from the filter head side; secure in the plug with the clip; cut the old plug out of the harness (I don't know if the circuit is "hot" but best disconnect battery just in case); join the new wires to the old using best size match as color is meaningless (solder and heat shrink tubing are fine or I used marine grade butt connectors with heat shrink).

Thank you all. The four wires and a single connector in the kit that what confused me. It is all clear now.

Wow, my first visit, OK, my first logged on visit, my first search, and my first answer to a question I didn't even have to ask. :BINGO:

I was confused by the two sets of wires that came in the kit, too. And I also thought that I saw pictures of the repair someplace.

Thanks for asking the question I was going to ask!

Tad

Welcome aboard and if you have not already done so read Sam's NOOB guide. I know there is a picture of an installed 2n gen fuel head in his fuel filter bleeding video.
