    Ever see inside the Protective Control Box?

    I think what you are describing the same condition I had. Sounds like you main (battery) solenoid is bad. Your getting power across the coil, but the contacts are done. See, I let my batteries get too weak and the slow cranking put to much load on the battery solenoid. The clicking is the...

    Ever see inside the Protective Control Box?

    I have fuel pressure leak at the first inlet into the pump governor. I can see it (slow) drip fuel where that head end piece mounts to the governor body, I believe. Sorry, I don't have the part names committed to memory. Anyway, I loose fuel pressure in a few hours. There is no gasket between...

    Ever see inside the Protective Control Box?

    Now that I think about the labor involved, I would buy a control box if your not interested in the repair project. Actually, it is a lot of work! I did it to learn something though. The first one is always the hardest to do. Honestly, I have many hours of diagnosing, take down, fabrication, put...

    Ever see inside the Protective Control Box?

    I say rebuild! My rebuild went just fine. Now that I know how to do it, I can get myself out of a (dead start) situation. From now on, I will always keep a set of rescue jumper wires in the tool box. Knowing how to jump-start from the harness, or right on the starter is a must! It could save you...

    Ever see inside the Protective Control Box?

    Hey I apologize. I read your reply again and realized that I needed to find post #20 and read up from there. I had so much going on in my head that I did not pay attention to your instructions. I'm still having issues, but I will figure them out. Your instructions and electrical schematics are a...
