I was getting my herd of cars ready for winter yesterday and remembered that my 914 had a very dull glow from the alt light, time to look see. The battery ground had some crud, as did the post, but want came to light under the sun was the 'Green Crud' in the bundle of wires that make up the ground, under the plastic covering. Any chance this is causing the dull glow of my alt light? Does this 'Green Crud' infection, fatal? Serious note: How long a ground wire do I need to buy? Is there a battery clamp that would allow me another hook up for my MSD? Same question for the hot side? Bob

The closest I get to aerospace is designing drone software for fun, sadly, but it's a great source of inspiration for "do it once, do it right or else".
Driving 280 in the afternoons, you could swear the sea is breaking over the hills. Still freaks me out sometimes after 15 years... |
