Running Again

Sucked a little gas out of the Super A (mmmm gas sure tastes good!). Added it to the carb on the truck and after sitting for 8 months it started right up.

I do have a problem with turn signal switch. The little red indicator light on the switch is on when turn signals are off. Indicator light goes off when the turn signals are on. Turn signals and hazards do work properly otherwise. I have to look for the paperwork and figure out what I have done wrong.

Still thinking of installing a battery kill switch. But I also bough a battery tender. So I still have to remove carpet or rubber mat to open the battery compartment in the floor to be able to connect the tender. So I am not sure if I really need the kill switch

You can hardwire a Battery Tender lead so all you have to do is plug it in or unplug it. I've done this on all my equipment.

Oh, that’s why my tender clamps come unplugged. Now I have to try to remember where I put the other cables that came with it. I bought three tenders. Don’t seem to remember where I put any of the cables.
