Default Re: '55 Ford car instrument repair

From 4PM one afternoon till noon next day, the electric clock lost about an hour. Williamsons already had the speed turned up quite a bit. I turned the speed up some more, but the guage wiring problem happened right after that and I disconnected the battery. Will check again later after guage problem is solved and battery is re-connected.
I had installed an on/off toggle switch to turn off the clock if I had planned to use the wagon for a couple days. Hopefully that would help save a little bit of clock motor run time. I had everything planned in advance for longevity. I am still holding out hope that this thing will be good for a while. We already scrapped one unsalvageable Westclox.
