Brief Description: Voltage regulator, spark plug wire installation
The 10 hours covers more than just one day. Everything is progressing slowly so I will just be doing the blog every few days so you aren't bored tooooo much.
This week I made a cover for the voltage regulator with an adapter that will blow air over it to keep it from getting too hot. I will put a scat tube on it and to a fresh air supply. Worked on the spark plug wires. One end has a connector crimped on and then they want it soldered for a secure fit. That end goes into the coils. There are two coils that feed 4 spark plugs each. Each cylinder has two spark plugs and one coil supplies power to one spark plug on each cylinder and the other coil does the other spark plugs on each cylinder. This way if one coil fails the other will keep the engine running. That means that you have to make up 8 spark plug wire assemblies. The other end of the wire has a screw on connector that will go onto the spark plug
