You are the man! I started with another forum and fled the idiot factor there. I have much experience trying to do what you do in the solar power world & I gave up due to that idiot factor. I would post something I knew to be correct and idiots would argue with me. Gee, I have been off grid for years, I wouldn't have a clue there. (Sarcasm is my way of coping) You'll see later that I bought the Bentley. On it's way from CA, maybe Monday.
"Are you dealing with an original wiring harness?"
Who knows, probably. It isn't anywhere near that bad though, actually looks good. The only rotting I have found is on light color wires where they are exposed. Most look fine. Where would that resistor be hiding? THAT could be the culprit. Am I going to have to strip the whole harness & trace wires? About now I am wishing that I had bid on a newer 240 that sold recently for way too little out where you are. I couldn't face the plane ride & drive back all the way across the country, but it is beginning to look like it would have been cheaper in the long run.
The car was starting OK, but then would just about die, then surge, then die, etc. Got better as it warmed up. Makes sense. I have half of a brain about such things. Used to race motorcycles back when (way back). So now I need to get the connector off and ohm that wire.
You guys and your acronyms. BIL? Mine is an old F250, same thing, but "WORK?" (Maynord G Crebbs). 210K & runs great thanks to Amsoil, dual filtration & fuel treatment. However, 4 torque converters & total of $5K in transmission work. We full timed in a fifth wheel and that just tears them up. I know, way off topic. If I could figure out how to PM. HA! This forum is really a bit awkward to use. Send me an email. bobanene at gmail.
