Okay, I've got one horn partly hooked up. Since I had my Nissan truck nearby
I took the other horn over to it and touched it's poles. Nada. It did make
the characteristic-needle-to-phonograph sound, but nothing near a real sound.
I turned the wiring around so that, this time, I held it to opposite battery
post's. This time, no kind of sound could be heard. Question: why the
difference? If indeed it did make a difference, then maybe I'd be better off
staying Positive ground?
One answer, no doubt, will be the size of my 8" nissan battery. BTW, I
stopped by Autozone today and they have a $90 battery that's 13 3/4" wide, 7"
deep with recessed poles, and is was group 49 and had a CCA of 850. It maybe
3/4" shorter than a group 24 or 27 battery but longer. I'll go by Walmart
tomorrow, but the Autozone battery will be hard to beat.
Maybe It will make the horns blast! I still can't remember if I've ever heard
a TR3 horn? I don't suppose that many CCA could damage a un-adjusted TR3
horn-do you think?
Thanks, Paul 60 Tr3A
