Which is the best way to install a connector. I need to replace the intake air temperature sensor but the connector wire is broken.
Their is a pigtail connection kit which says to heat shrink after you have made the connections. What do I need to heat shrink this connection.

A lighter works great on heat shrink tubing. You can also use a torch, but that gets to be dangerous and intense. You might try a hair dryer as well. Or a big match. Be careful if you are around fuel though.
