Hi, Bill.....I'm such an idiot.....maybe I should be building a bicycle instead. (Come to think of it, that's how the Wright bros. started).  Item number 3 does NOT have two wires. It appears to be a drain, just as you said.  I neglected to take a picture of the item that truly DOES have two wires on it. It is located just above the top spark plug closest to the water pump. My guess is that's a temp sender, probably takes the place of a cylinder head temp on a Lycoming?  Here is a picture.  Thanks for setting me straight.  Now, if I can just get my pictures in order.....  Paul Conner

Item 3 is the block drain for coolant. Mine has no wires coming from it, and from your picture, neither does yours.

Hi, fellow rotary enthusiasts.....I finally got my EFI system wired up, and I am now attempting to hook up the last few items so I can start this thing up, make noise and scare the neighbors.  I took a few photos, and labeled the items in question....I don't know what these sensors and connections are or should be.  Any help would be much appreciated. It is a 1989 turbo model engine, if that helps.  I will send this message in two parts, so download times won't be so bad. Items one and two are just underneath the oil cooler. Item #1 is a small threaded sensor with two wires coming out of it.  Item #2 is Larger, and has two connectors at the end.
     In the second picture, Item #3 also has 2 wires. It is octagon in shape.
     Item #4 is a plug on the lower tube of the water pump. I thought this might go to the turbo, if one were installed?
     Item #5  Is a plug on the upper section of the water pump, next to the water temp sensor.  (I actually figured out  and wired the water temp sensor, all by myself).
     Item #6 is another sender of some type, with two wires coming out of it.
Thanks in advance for your assistance in identifying these items.  I know many of you have been there and done that.  sincerely, Paul Conner
