Thanks for the input, I returned the repco part today.
The repco part had two wires wheras my original part has three, one going to the unit under the Air cleaner.
Oh well, at least I saved myself $100!

Hey all, A while ago I had some overheating issues with my TD42 Mav while going up a long hill on a hot day. I examined the viscous hub and decided to refill it with the Toyota oil. All went fine but I can now see in the engine bay that the oil has spun out of the hub and it's feeling quite loose ...

Oscars, I wired all battery conections up with very fat starter cable. Is that right? I'm not sure of the mm's but had to get the auto lecy to fit the ends as I didnt have the giant crimping machine!
Just got to look for a 10A push switch for the overide.
