Put Dielectric on the rotors nose and on the contacts inside the distributor, On the wire boots pinch the side of them when installing to let the
trapped air out!! I would put the dielectric on all the connectors don't use too much or you will hydraulicly push the contacts away from their
mate and you will lose contact. Be sure to extend your differential vent lines and put a loop in them. If you are a regular water crosser I
would move the charcoal canister up higher or else you can **** water into the intake,Too much at the wrong time is bad. I used to drive
200 yards through brackish water to shorelaunch my boat in the canal, It would get pretty deep if I forgot where the holes were or if some
knucklehead power loaded in too shallow of a spot!! I ran all vent lines and the charcoal canister up higher and dielectric all connectors and
never had a problem!! Be careful with the O2 sensor since it needs to breathe it is best to let the truck cool a bit if you are going to cross
deep water, Or else when the pipe and sensor gets splashed or submerged it cools rapidly and draws in water. Do not put dielectric on it or
it will never read correctly you could put a bigger copper or steel pipe around it so it doesn't get splashed and it can get air from a bit higher
up. Who here has the original rubber boot that covers the distributor? I do!! Keep the wires sprayed with silicone to keep them waterproof
also at night get a spray bottle and spray down the wires with water, start the truck, turn off all lights and look for sparks jumping between
wires to ground or to other low voltage wires, IF you see abunch that is lost energy when crossing water, You need to add seperators, reroute
wires or cover with split loom!!
