Talking to Myself
Well, letting the ABS cure good before covering it up with the skids, so I decided to go over all the other workings. Well, the headlights had been working, but now nothing. After much
and testing with a meter, I found that the original fuse holder had 1 strand of wire still attached, enough to switch the starter solenoid, but the volts dropped to almost zero with the lights. So, new fuse-holder! Glad I caught that before I tackle "THE SWAMP" (Teaser video soon!) I removed the cloth heat shield since it was brought to my attention that they were asbestos. I wrapped the exaust and it looks much better too. And the automatic bilge pump and on/off/auto switch out of my old boat are installed and wired, work nice, just gotta mount it to the tub once the skid plate backing plates are in. I would NEVER hear the pump switch on over the engine and I wanna know if I'm sinking BEFORE I go down, so I routed the tube to the thru-hull to the front so I will see it. I do have to tidy up the wiring i tore out to find the light problem. The last photo shows how I relocated the ignition coil. HAS ANYONE HAD THIS PROBLEM BEFORE
The coil was directly below the carb (Tillotson HR7A) and was pushing the fuel inlet on the bottom of the "Bowl" out. It was actually causing a seal to leak. It is not as close to the clutch as it looks, and the belt wont hit it, even if it pops out, unless it breaks. But I don't understand why they would do this, unless the coil mount or carb are not original.
