  1. Is the switch connected to a dump valve on the frame or the air tank?
  2. Mine has 2 pairs of coils each with its own screws for the coils
  3. No GW. All 4 are tied together. Only 1 hole
  4. You are correct. It is a concern of mine. I do not know what the effect will be. I was also wondering how I would hook it up, do i run a jumper for the brushes? Or do I box it up and return it ?
  5. Yeah, your good... welcome to the Dog Park...
  6. Yes Paul , that is what I am looking to do. I have very good cables and terminals. My goal is reduce the heat from amp draw.. thanks bud....
  7. Be fore i started with the City.. The policy was, if you didnt take 'The Jab' and you got the Kung Flu, you would not get sick pay... F'n Progressives.... Not sure what todays policy is...
  8. Another thought I have is to use my silver solder, then buy a 12 volt battery that has amps that compare to the correct 6 volt battery. However, I dont know what that amperage is... Go figure......
  9. got it.. yes it is tight and the strap may not bend enough to allow the stup to be installed with its insulators... I will use my silver solder and propane torch on a practice piece 1st. If it is not hot enough I will get a MAP GAS cyl.
  10. Thanks GW.. how about , I line it up in mock up, mark it and take it to a jewler and pay him to weld it ??
  11. Ok... so I was also thinking about drilling a hole in the windings strap and the center of the power stud and tapping it to accept a small bolt, then soldering it... Thoughts ??
  12. I have solder with silver, and a small propane torch. Will my brazing tip be better ?
  13. I have all of those solders.. I just need to pick the one that wont melt when I crank the engine, on a day when it starts hard... 🍻
  14. Speaking of King Fuacci.... He sure is silent about the Rat Sh!T virus that is slowly infecting people. Funny how all the states that have infected people encircle the lower 48... anyway, its Friday eve.. Have a good one.....
  15. Yes Bob, I guess I can go to You Tube University. I prefer the Goeff Weeks Vocational Technical Institute when it comes to my KB-7...
  16. Silver solder ? I will buy some. I have a common solder, but dont know what it is made of.
  17. So here is my new field kit. No instructions with it. My guess is I have to weld the copper tab to the back of the power stud. Will solder withstand the amps, or will it melt ? I do have lead on hand if that is what I need.
  18. Yes tjc.. that picture
  19. My plan is to pull the pan to clean the sludge. The coldest it gets here is 10 degrees, for 1 day. I doubt i will have an issue there.. πŸ‘
  20. Happy Birthday Bullheaded.!!! Hope you have a great day.. πŸ₯³πŸŽ‚
  21. Happy Birthday to Mechohaulic !! Awesome !! πŸŽ‚πŸ₯³
  22. Paul,. doing a job over again wastes time and money for sure. The only pressure I am under is my need to drive this truck. But I do have to take care in these next steps.
  23. GW. I stopped to think about a PVC.. I looked at the truck a minute ago. I have a copper line coming from the valve cover going to the air cleaner. I forgot it. I even blasted and painted it for installation..
  24. Thank you for helping me again. I have not done what I am doing to this truck on any other truck. At times, I tend to overthink things, only to find out that I am fine.. This is likely one of those times again..
  25. GW. I was curious about the pressure issue. I did not rebuild the engine. When i had it running, it ran great, and the torque when i let the clutch out and when i stabbed the throttle, was impressive to me .. I will leave it like it is. I hope I rebuild the starter correctly, and then get it to fire up with my new wiring. Im hoping the distributor will accept 12 volt neg ground as it is.
