[Healeys] FW: My 100-6 1957

A wiring schematic would be very helpful. Moss has reprints of factory service manuals. Also someone has large 11”x17” laminated schematic with proper colors of wring offered.

I didn't install it because it appeared full current could pass through it, and IIRC I figured 14ga wire or bigger might be needed, and would have to be routed through the scuttle and under the fascia.

>> FWIW: I got an ammeter for my BJ8 years ago; it's the only one I've seen for Healeys--it is a Smiths--but I've been leery of installing it as it has to go in series with one of the terminals on the voltage regulator--no shunt--and AFAIK it carries full dis/charging current (possible major smoke producer). If his has a shunt, it's likely an aftermarket and he probably needs to contact the manufacturer (but it's likely for 12V systems and, conceivably, all he as to do is wire it backwards for pos. gnd.). Getting the fuel gauge to work properly can be an involved process; MGA Guru has the most comprehensive info I've seen: https://www.mgaguru.com//mgtech/fuel/fuel.htm
