[Fot] Single wire alternator

[jwags at dotnet.com]

I don't often have things to say, but last night while getting the
purple(74) TR3 ready for
Road America I turned the kill switch off with the engine running and to my
surprise
Everything kept running,engine,fuel pump,fan, O my! Even the brake lights
worked.
With a little time on the web I fond that a single wire alternator needs to
be hook to
The battery side of the kill switch, and not the starter. A little longer
and larger wire
Did the trick.
     We had been running like that for years. Tech always checks the switch
with the engine
Off. So if any one in FOT land thinks they might be in the same boat
starter up and
Turn off the kill switch.



Just the wrench
