    m1008 can not figure out light issues

    Sounds like you have one **** of a gremlin living under your hood, or maybe a family of them. Give it some time and the experts will start to chime in. How new are your batteries and do you have the GP resistor bypass in place?

    M1010 somebody talk me down

    Just cranks progressively getting weaker. No relay chatter, no sign of firing. I'm afraid to crank it more than 3 or 4 second at a time because it sounds so weak toward the end. New starter, relay, cables, terminals and batteries should expel the gremlin. I'm not thinking prime because it fires...

    What have you done to your CUCV today/lately - Part 2

    The reason I ask all this is antenna climber did a post showing the draw at 100 amps 50 per side so I rated my wiring on this. I have circuit breakers for 100, 125, 150, 200 and 250 so I guess I'll see what fits and works. I don't know how to hyperlink other threads, but it is under the Cucv...
