Re: Instruments not working

Bob C has it right. There is no fuse, there is no IVR. For example, the fuel gage has two wires connected to it. One from the sending unit and the other the power Bob mentions.

Re: Hard time starting with electric starter, easy with crank

Alan,

I checked obits after reading this. Sadly, Bob passed away September 23, 2023. He was a great mechanic and helped so many people. He was also a true gentleman. RIP Bob.

Re: 2024 EFV-8 Central National Meet Auburn Indiana

Re: '36 Easter Colors

Steve,

Don clearly references the Easter colors in his book. Check the footnotes. They are Desert Sand, Armory Green, Light Fast Maroon, and Bambolino Blue.
