Electrical woes Over!!!!
As mentionned in previous post I've been doing electrical
surgery on my MkII with Channelock 447's and have managed to replace two of the
large connectors and the fusebox. I was having some difficulties with a few of
the outbard relays and some odd wires here and there.
Well today I told myself it was about time I got the
Electronics technician background into gear and sorted out this crap! I had a
friend of mine do the legwork while I had my head crunched under the dash with
the multimeter and other miscellaneous test gigs. We sorted all the loose ends
out and my electrical system is now "functionning within normal
parameters" (heheh). Yessir everything I meand everything now
works.
I have also taken a few notes regarding the ground structure
of the system, I would strongly recommend that you all install a ground buss
from battery, to engine (block and distributor), to body and to computer, this
has solved one of my woes and has apparently increased efficiency of my ignition
system. this I know should alredy be done but corrosion claims the stock buss
wire without it even showing sometimes, so I urge you to check it
out!!
