Zach,

I hope you like to freeze your nuts off.  Did you pull the heater box?  What
the hell's wrong with you?  What are you going to do whenever you need new
spark plugs, pull the engine and leave it out also?  Now, put the heater box back
in there, install a new heater control valve (or a stop valve) and then undo
whatever you did to your instrument cluster wiring until you have the
electrical schematic diagram to guide your work.
