tubbedbaggedstockfloored65 Posted October 30, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 30, 2014 I'm askin for your guys advice and oppinion so I can make it eight, as of today I made the red wire into black wire and put it in the threaded pole on alternator and moved negative cable end ground to bolt spot right behind fuel pumo on passenger side adter I cleanedthe rusty end real well and cleaned the ground wire that's on the passenger side radiator bolt on top, does anyone have this bolt or ground here to ? Is that normal Quote Link to comment
banzai510(hainz) Posted October 30, 2014 Report Share Posted October 30, 2014 What I see attached from the - batt cable is a ground wire. ,why use it if the big batt cable is already to ground, unless it goes to a specific powered unit. (Lights, electri motor ect...) Hainz the battery cable to ground on the block is good but for things grounded to the body sheet metal how does it get to the battery ground??? engine/trans/differentia, exhaust, shocks... are all rubber isolated from the body making it difficult. A seperate ground strap from battery to the body is a good idea. Quote Link to comment

tubbedbaggedstockfloored65 Posted November 17, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 17, 2014 Needed a battery scored free one from buddy for my b day so I had to get side post adapter plugs and cut out battery tray ever so slightly for my huge battery I put in with bungees so it don't slide around Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted November 17, 2014 Report Share Posted November 17, 2014 Now you're getting somewhere. High beams are two prongs on the back of the bulbs. Low beams have three. Quote Link to comment
]2eDeYe Posted November 17, 2014 Report Share Posted November 17, 2014 I still only have high heater fan and no low fan There is a resistor in the fan housing that is probably burnt. There is a thread on how to repair it in the how-to section. 1 Quote Link to comment

tubbedbaggedstockfloored65 Posted November 17, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 17, 2014 Thanks datzen mike and redeye, and thanks fo downgrading banzai :) GLAD TO SEE I HAVE HATERS Quote Link to comment
banzai510(hainz) Posted November 17, 2014 Report Share Posted November 17, 2014 when you run H4s you need a H4 harness.H4 bulbs are 55/60watts. stock is 35watts on both elements 3 pronge is High and Low no matter if H4 or stock lamp. If no H4 harness you run the risk if buring wires up. So then youll down grade your vehicle instead thinking of me How I was downgraded . Quote Link to comment

tubbedbaggedstockfloored65 Posted November 19, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 19, 2014 I wasn't sure how the heater spring came out so I just pryed on it and hoped for best glad Its just plastic clips and it popped off and , yep like datsun mike and redeye said the thing wasn't touching other side so I bent it around it and made it secure, turned the key and heatd the fan turn on on the first click , yeehaw now I have low and hot and the bottom cable that closes the bottom valve is not attached and I see where it needs to be attached it justs to loose and it doesn't pull in our out on valve, cable is not brokennbut I don't no where it clips or hooks to to keep it tight Quote Link to comment
