I could probably replace the connector and then slide a carburetor vacuum plug over the stud but there would still be some exposed metal. Any ideas? A bunch of electrical stuff in the river city today.

Beginning an online search right now. Thanks 1972 Cuda 340 4 speed, 2001 Ram CTD 4x4 6 speed, 1970 Duster 408 4 speed, 1996 Ram 5.9 2x4 auto, 1965 Coronet 500
