What you are describing sounds like a Molex pin connector for the wire, but I can't find them with a ring connector with either Molex or Amp. I have switched to using the Molex Permaseal ring terminals. You crimp like the standard automotive connectors, then heat the connector and it shrinks over the wire insulation to seal it from weather and act as a strain relief for the wire. -Jeff Scott +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
I'm not sure this applies to this discussion but I'll toss it out while "connectors" are the subject. There is apparently a connector of some type that after crimping it is heated to melt internal solder. That's the story I got. I've not seen one but a friend was having intermittent high oil pressure reads and found some of these type connectors making poor connection. He "re-heated" to melt the solder and fixed the problem. If anyone wants more information on these I'll get back to you.
