    555E Wheel bearing preload torque spec

    Trying to get a l10 Pete 377 running.

    That 2 wire harness could be the data link. Early Celect engines used Cummins's ECAP suitcase to communicate with the engine. It had a 2 wire metripack data connector and a power plug that fit a cigarette lighter.
