No, you have not been unsubscribed.  It happens from time to time, not 
very frequently, that random addresses will get that message sent to 
them.  To be honest, I am not sure if the problem is with mailman doing 
it, or if random outside people get access to the unsubscribe links in 
the footer of messages, and send malicious email just for fun.  It seems 
more likely that it is an artifact of the mailman system as currently 
installed, kept running by being pieced together with bubble gum and 
bailing wire, or more currently, nylon tie wraps.  Nobody uses bailing 
wire anymore, though I do have maybe 60 - 70 feet of it on a stick out 
in the garage.

So don't worry, nothing has happened to your subscription, you are still 
on whatever lists you subscribed to.

Looks like you're still live.

I get a few fake cancellation confirmations per day.  My non-existent 
iCloud account gets cancelled at least twice a week.

Subject: [Shop-talk] One for the woodworkers
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit
Errors-To: shop-talk-bounces@autox.team.net

Wifey has a furniture restoration hobby. She did a pretty good job on an 
outdoor table but the varnish flaked-off after a few months. This table 
has a steel frame and a stained wood top; what is a good 
finish--urethane, acrylic, varnish, etc.--that will give a good luster 
and last more than a season in the elements?

TIA,
Bob

Interlux Schooner varnish holds up very well on boats.
But since the varnish is flaking off, I wonder if there was an adhesion
problem.

I could swear that I used to run an AGM battery meant for a Honda Gold
Wing, laid down flat in my Lotus Elise. That car has gone away.

I bought a Birkin and there is a larger automotive AGM battery lying on its
side.  This battery won't fit in there standing up with the terminals on
top.  Is it OK to continue to use the mounting done by a previous owner?

Bob,

Most marine finishes will hold up, but they do require some maintenance.
Personally, I use this TotalBoat Lust Marine Spar Varnish
<https://www.jamestowndistributors.com/product/product-detail/98160> on my
sailboat, but any of the Total Boat varnishes have a good reputation,
although I have not used the water-based one.  Another popular finnish with
boaters is Cetol by Sikkens.  I've used it on the interior of my boat but
never the exterior.  If you live anywhere near an ocean or sizable lake try
your local chandlery for other choices.

Good luck.

Tom

It does not have a

John, I would have bet money it was a hidden wire short somewhere. It had a=
ll the Hallmarks.  But you stated the wiring harness what completely replac=
ed. So, that rules that out...=20

Or does it?=20

My question, when you said 'headlight=20
to=20
taillight', that is complete.  BUT was there ANY wire that was in that car =
that wasn't=20
part of the harness?=20

Something in dash, neutral switch, tranny indicator, or some other componen=
t?=20

I'm still betting on a wire short, but I guess it could be a short inside a=
 component.  Maybe inside the alt or other part?=20

BTW, I'm=20
assuming it was doing this, before you did all these mods, right?=20

Anyway, that is a stumper.=20

Strange automotive electrical problem we need help with=E2=80=A6
55 chevy automatic with 383 stroker motor, carbed, p/s,p/b,a/c
Dakota digital dash system including neutral safety switch and
Transmission gear indicator
=20
When it is running right, it=E2=80=99s scary strong.  Cruises nicely.
=20
Problem=E2=80=A6 when driving the engine dies like you cut it off=E2=80=A6B=
UT will start back up
Immediately and run perfectly till the next time it does it.  Might be 15=
=20
minutes=E2=80=A615 days or
three month later. Might do it 4 times in a row or once and not repeat.  Sp=
eed=20
does not effect it.=20
Engine temp does not effect it=E2=80=A6  does it hot or cold. With the a/c =
on or off. =20
It does not have a
Cutoff switch in the system.  Longest period with no failure is 7 months=E2=
=80=A6=20
shortest was 4 minutes.
=20
When it stalls we checked fuel by looking in the bowl of carb and gas is=20
spraying as it should
So we are assuming electrical of some sort.  So far we=E2=80=99ve done the =
following=E2=80=A6
=20
Replaced battery with new red top optima battery and all new battery cables=
 (2=20
gauge I think)
Replaced all ground cables frame/block=E2=80=A6 frame/chassis with 2/0 weld=
ing cable=20
with new crimped
connectors and clean, bare metal attachment points
replaced ignition switch (twice=E2=80=A6 first with import then with oem sw=
itch)
replaced coil and distributor with MSD system with spark control box, separ=
ate=20
coil and distributor=E2=80=A6
it was taken from running vehicle.  It's doing the same  thing as the origi=
nal ignition system.
Replaced complete wiring harness=E2=80=A6headlight to taillight with new Au=
towire harness=E2=80=A6including all
Switches and relays. Professionally done.
Everything else electrical works without a glitch=E2=80=A6  we are at the w=
all here=E2=80=A6
=20
Ideas, suggestions, calculated wild a** guesses welcomed=E2=80=A6  =20
thanks

Hi Tim,

Autometer makes some very nice mechanical temperature gauges. I am using on

As you know, intermittent electrical problems are some of the most
difficult to track down.

About your only course of action is when it happens, try to monitor/measure
all possible factors before you restart.

Do any of the gauges or indicator lights indicate any problem when it
occurs? Any audible clicks or pops? Does it only happen when it is hot
outside, cold outside, wet outside, etc. Trying to find any common factor
for the moment when the failure occurs could help you start to track it
down.

I know it seems unlikely, but if turning the ignition switch seems to solve
the problem, it could be the ignition switch (I have had two ignition
switches fail intermittently, so I am attentive to that possibility).

You almost have to hope that whatever it is that fails briefly will fail
permanently so that you can track it down.

If it always occurred when you hit a bump (electrical connection) or after
the engine had been running for an hour or so (overheated component), etc.,
you could start to track things down, but it seems totally random.

p;You (or your mechanic) need to draw a diagram of what the ignition system s=

 spark box has, what the distributor has, etc. then you need to verify that y=
our diagram is right, by visual inspection (don=E2=80=99t take it apart). If=
 it doesn=E2=80=99t match, figure out why. Once you know the fundamental set=
 up is right, you need to work through it, starting at the battery, through t=

 that you have something physically broken, that is intermittently opening. C=

 solder joints with properly crimped ones. &nbsp;Solder has no place in auto=

Not exactly the problem you're having, but maybe something similar. Decades
ago when I worked for a Volkswagen dealer, we had a newish car that
exhibited a similar electrical problem. The guy would go out to his car,
try to crank it up to go to work, and it wouldn't start. He had it towed in
three times and all three times they dropped it off the wrecker, it cranked
up and drove perfectly. Finally, the fourth time he had the problem, my
boss told me to get some tools and drive to the guy's house. I spent about
30 minutes tracing the problem, and finally found it. Underneath the carpet
in the trunk of the car there was a wire connection for the fuel pump. A
single wire plugged into another single wire inside of plastic connector.
That connector was taped to the floor the back of the car. I traced the
electrical problem to that point - power ahead of it and not after it. When
I peeled the tape back, I found that the wires were plugged in far enough
to touch, but not far enough to be permanently connected.

I just pushed the wires together, and everything was fine. No more
trouble.  Apparently, the wires would retract from one another when it got
a little cool, and break the connection to the fuel pump.  Putting it on
the wrecker and bouncing it to the shop was enough to remake the connection=
.

I like the AutoMeter gauges, too, particularly the larger, 270 degree sweep
mechanical versions. All you have to do is glance at where the needle is to
make sure the coolant temp is OK. I put one in my Datsun Roadster, along
with a matching oil pressure gauge. Same ease of use. The installation was
a snap using an Eqqus (IIRC) adapter set I picked up at a local O=E2=80=99R=
eilly=E2=80=99s.

Wiring the lights is easy, too. Just don't use the crimp-on Scotch-Locs.
They=E2=80=99re likely to eventually cut your wires. Check out Posi-Loc con=
nectors
on Amazon or Crutchfields.

HTH,
Ron

Howdy,

I had a similar thing a long time ago with a more modern car... '99
Camaro.  That did turn out to be grounding related (specifically, the
grounds between the engine block and the chassis).

But in my case the car almost never ran right, vs. it only occasionally
having a problem.  Not to say that you couldn't be on a similar path of
course.  Given that its fairly easy, I would definitely just run a
completely new / separate grounding wire from the engine to the chassis.
Maybe even one to the frame and one to whatever sheet metal your ignition
stuff is mounted on / getting its ground from?

I also wouldn't rule out the new harness if everything else checks out
either though.  You wouldn't be the first person to have a brand new thing
have an issue.  I assume you've carefully inspected all related connectors
for a pin that's not fully seated, etc. etc?

Good luck!  With my Camaro after dicking with it for a year or so, I took
it to a very well respected mechanic with instructions to either fix it or
burn it.  At that point I didn't care which way it went.  :)

It sounds like you are/have ruled out fuel starvation, indicating it has
fuel as far as the carburetor (and presumably the cylinders), and you
appear to be describing a sudden 'cut off' as opposed to the less sudden
dieing out do to temporary lack of fuel. Yes?

If so, it seems like it would need to be a fault in the ignition system
that allows spark, then changes state to deny spark, then returns to the
prior or similar state where spark gets called for, produced and delivered.

Good point!!  Is this a column shift?

I'm betting the first thing that happens when the engine quits is the gear
shifter gets moved. (Into neutral or park, if stopped; into neutral to
coast off the road if it happens while driving...) Moving the shifter could
be changing whether spark is being called for.

John, I would have bet money it was a hidden wire short somewhere. It had a=

Or does it?=20

My question, when you said 'headlight=20

taillight', that is complete.  BUT was there ANY wire that was in that car =
that wasn't=20
part of the harness?=20

Something in dash, neutral switch, tranny indicator, or some other componen=

I'm still betting on a wire short, but I guess it could be a short inside a=
 component.  Maybe inside the alt or other part?=20

BTW, I'm=20
assuming it was doing this, before you did all these mods, right?=20

Anyway, that is a stumper.=20

Strange automotive electrical problem we need help with=E2=80=A6
55 chevy automatic with 383 stroker motor, carbed, p/s,p/b,a/c
Dakota digital dash system including neutral safety switch and
Transmission gear indicator
=20
When it is running right, it=E2=80=99s scary strong.  Cruises nicely.
=20
Problem=E2=80=A6 when driving the engine dies like you cut it off=E2=80=A6B=
UT will start back up
Immediately and run perfectly till the next time it does it.  Might be 15=
=20
minutes=E2=80=A615 days or
three month later. Might do it 4 times in a row or once and not repeat.  Sp=
eed=20
does not effect it.=20
Engine temp does not effect it=E2=80=A6  does it hot or cold. With the a/c =
on or off. =20
It does not have a
Cutoff switch in the system.  Longest period with no failure is 7 months=E2=
=80=A6=20
shortest was 4 minutes.
=20
When it stalls we checked fuel by looking in the bowl of carb and gas is=20
spraying as it should
So we are assuming electrical of some sort.  So far we=E2=80=99ve done the =
following=E2=80=A6
=20
Replaced battery with new red top optima battery and all new battery cables=
 (2=20
gauge I think)
Replaced all ground cables frame/block=E2=80=A6 frame/chassis with 2/0 weld=
ing cable=20
with new crimped
connectors and clean, bare metal attachment points
replaced ignition switch (twice=E2=80=A6 first with import then with oem sw=
itch)
replaced coil and distributor with MSD system with spark control box, separ=
ate=20
coil and distributor=E2=80=A6
it was taken from running vehicle.  It's doing the same  thing as the origi=
nal ignition system.
Replaced complete wiring harness=E2=80=A6headlight to taillight with new Au=
towire harness=E2=80=A6including all
Switches and relays. Professionally done.
Everything else electrical works without a glitch=E2=80=A6  we are at the w=
all here=E2=80=A6
=20
Ideas, suggestions, calculated wild a** guesses welcomed=E2=80=A6  =20

Strange automotive electrical problem we need help with=E2=80=A6

55 chevy automatic with 383 stroker motor, carbed, p/s,p/b,a/c

Dakota digital dash system including neutral safety switch and

Transmission gear indicator

=C2=A0

When it is running right, it=E2=80=99s scary strong.=C2=A0 Cruises nicely.

=C2=A0

Problem=E2=80=A6 when driving the engine dies like you cut it off=E2=80=A6B=
UT will start back up

Immediately and run perfectly till the next time it does it.=C2=A0 Might be=
 15 minutes=E2=80=A615 days or

three month later. Might do it 4 times in a row or once and not repeat.=C2=
=A0 Speed does not effect it.=20

Engine temp does not effect it=E2=80=A6 =C2=A0does it hot or cold. With the=
 a/c on or off.=C2=A0 It does not have a

Cutoff switch in the system.=C2=A0 Longest period with no failure is 7 mont=
hs=E2=80=A6 shortest was 4 minutes.

=C2=A0

When it stalls we checked fuel by looking in the bowl of carb and gas is sp=
raying as it should

So we are assuming electrical of some sort.=C2=A0 So far we=E2=80=99ve done=
 the following=E2=80=A6

=C2=A0

Replaced battery with new red top optima battery and all new battery cables=
 (2 gauge I think)

Replaced all ground cables frame/block=E2=80=A6 frame/chassis with 2/0 weld=
ing cable with new crimped

connectors and clean, bare metal attachment points

replaced ignition switch (twice=E2=80=A6 first with import then with oem sw=
itch)

replaced coil and distributor with MSD system with spark control box, separ=
ate coil and distributor=E2=80=A6

it was taken from running vehicle.=C2=A0 It's doing the same =C2=A0thing as=
 the original ignition system.

Replaced complete wiring harness=E2=80=A6headlight to taillight with new Au=
towire harness=E2=80=A6including all

Switches and relays. Professionally done.

Everything else electrical works without a glitch=E2=80=A6 =C2=A0we are at =
the wall here=E2=80=A6

=C2=A0

Ideas, suggestions, calculated wild a** guesses welcomed=E2=80=A6 =C2=A0=20

thanks

=C2=A0

Ok. If it shuts down like the ignition was cut off, I'll go out on a limb
and say ... The ignition was cut off somewhere. I'd work backwards from the
cylinders, checking for single failure points. (For instance, a single bad
spark plug or secondary wire won't shut down the whole engine, but an
intermittent ground at a distributor or spark pack might just.)

Btw, is this a points engine or electronic?

<div>It sounds like you are/have ruled out fuel starvation, indicating it h=
as fuel as far as the carburetor (and presumably the cylinders), and you ap=

<div>If so, it seems like it would need to be a fault in the ignition syste=
