Someone may have broken the lug off of the wire and then put the wrong one on it because they forgot where it should be connected. If it's as large a wire the other browns on the post, I suspect it's

Aw, ida no, when you get right down to it the fuse block is a junction block with some fuses in it. Almost all circuits are affected by it. The problem I had with the horns on my '69 B finally turned

OK, so the large brown wire goes to the post, as I suggested. But that's only half the story. What color is the wire that goes to the starter solenoid? That twigged my OF memory. I had a '70 B that h

You may not need any bushing work. New standard-size shafts may solve the leakage problem. The usual wear point is at the linkage end of the shafts, on the lower circumference. This is because of the

Another way to check for a leak at the shafts is to suirt engine oil on the shafts whith the engine running. If there's appreciable leakage the engine will slow down because the oil will temporarily

OOPS, wait a minute, if you get a small spark when you touch the coil housing to the tranny, then there is current flow through the coil. You may have bad connections that limit the amount of current

Did you move the stabilizer? I accidently installed one wrong side up once. It made the guages read high. Hmm, no, that's backwards from what you're experiencing. Maybe you've connected it backwards.
