2009 December 14: Wiring (2.00 hours)

• Ran the bike for 15 minutes to get the oil thoroughly circulated and the head gaskets a chance to get really compressed.
• Once again, the wiring in the kill switch circuit melted. I then thoroughly investigated and could find no direct short or improper wiring. I bypassed the kill switch and the wiring stayed nice and cool. I have to assume - even though I rebuild the kill switch myself - that there is simply too much current being pulled through that kill switch. Resistance = heat and I'm betting that this is the problem. Perhaps my Flame Thrower coils are drawing sufficiently more current to cause this problem? For now, I will lose the kill switch.
