Thanks guys. I went back out and revisited the wire connections since the diagram JP provided shows simply connecting the wires. What threw me was one of the wires had two inside of it.
I took off the crimps and simply twisted the wires together and it appeared to be working. I had just run some errands in it so the engine was warm. At idle I was showing 2k degrees and it did increase with applied throttle and RPMs. So I just made sure the wires were nicely twisted together and put electrical tape around the connections. The connections are in a nice place and out of the way. So perhaps it was just a bad crimp (the pins were much larger than the small wire or I just did a bad job).
We'll see how it works as tonight it is going on a fishing trip to Canada and then back next Monday.
