Wendy, I'm home.
I'm fixing some wiring issues on the RR and bought these connectors.


What crimper would you use or where would I find one that will correctly crimp these? Don't want to drive all over town looking, until I have to.

Thanks!

That is called a flag terminal, you should be able to get a tool to crimp them at a hardware store with a well stocked tool section.

That tool may do them but it's not really the correct size for the smaller wire gauges .

I bought the MSD spark plug wire crimp tool and I was able to buy a die set to do the flag terminals also ...

Try Radio Shack if you can't find it at a hardware store

Thanks for the help. Looks like the 500649 tool is around $100 with good quality equivalents in the same range. Hope a parts store has one as a loaner.

You need a crimper for a Delphi/Packard 56 terminal

I use the 1006, haven't tried the 1005 on the bare connectors.

1006 would be the tool to get as it has the 2 sizes that would be required .
