    I think you'll get a better response if you use the correct term, it is a "thingamiejig"

    Looks like a #2 Phillips Head Screw to me... but what would I know...

    (probably the sense line for a Boost Gauge that has been removed if it is where I think it is ... but don't tell Tuppa)

    Dolphins are so smart that within a few weeks of captivity, they can train people to stand on the very edge of the pool and throw them fish.

    It might be a flighting. I had a machine come into my shop with this sticker, always wondered what it was;

    Picture.jpg
    2005 GU IV ST 3.0. Snorkel. Roof rack. Awning. Spots. Welded I/C. Dual batteries & VSR. UHF. Barn door hinge extension. Roof top spot lights. Rear drawers. 2" lift. NADS. EGT and boost gauges. Trans temp and water temp gauges. Provent 200 catch can. Rear ladder


    And crawling on the planet's face, some insects called the human race. Lost in time. And lost in space... and meaning.

    Oh seriously I think ET has nailed it. Looks like a blocked off sensor hole.

    Thanks everyone for your valuable input.....hahaha
    Now for another question, when I install the boost and EGT gauges do I need to wire them up to power, as I have no idea how to?
