RE: Strange Car Stereo Problem (score: 1): Author: "Randall" <tr3driver@comcast.net>; Date: Thu, 6 Oct 2005 18:33:54 -0700; 1000 microfarads (abbreviated mfd or sometimes uF) should make a difference, if that is the problem. More won't hurt anything, but the 0.5 farad or 1.0 farad "monster" caps are certainly overkill. U; /html/triumphs/2005-10/msg00195.html (7,897 bytes)
