<div class="yahoo-style-wrap" style="font-family:'times new roman', 'new york', times, serif;font-size:16px;">
<div dir="ltr"> Wiring
the engine bay in my BN2 now. A little confused. When I
wired the Bugeye some 20 years ago I don't seem to remember having
any problems matching wiring end terminals with the connections to
the components in the engine bay. If you look at the two
pictures one is of a straight on shot of the voltage regulator with
the cover off. All the connections have been made except the
three black wires that go to the screw on the right. Easy
enough to just cut off the eyelet and twist the three wires
together, then shove under the screw. My question is why is
there an eyelet connecting these three wires? The second
picture (not real clear) shows another eyelet on the end of the
white wire with the red tracer. This wire goes to the blade
connector at the top of the solenoid. I can see that I have
to cut this eyelet off also and crimp/solder a female connector for
the blade connection (or drill out that hole and put a screw and
nut in there for the eyelet), but why is there an eyelet on the end
of this wire? Did the original solenoid have a screw
connection for the eyelet. That would not be the case for the
three black wires that connect to the voltage regulator
though. Just wanted to ask before I started snipping away
here.</div>
