| Leon,
I hate to be anti-Canadian (after all they did not side with the US on the Iraqi thingy...but we won't go there :-)) but we're all going to Virginy. How about you dial in the compas to point south with a little east. We could very easily have 20 Loops there.

rally

| Gary,
You going to get time to come to the Virginia |
Rally at the end of June? Why
| don't you and Tom shovel the snow from the |
|
|
drive
| | and ride down. I'll be
| there.....Andy Hill, Charlie (I think) too. |
|
|
Should
| | be a good Loop turn out.

Leon and Allen , Email me your addresses and |

|
I
| | will send you some
| | relays. JC Whitney sells a REAL GOOD quality H-4 |
|
|
|
lamp
| | assembly . It is sold as
| | the one with a leaded crystal lens. I use |
|
|
|
old
| | Cibie H'lights and they
| | are near impossible to find . The Whitney |
|
|
|
light
| | looks for all the world
| | to have been made by the Cibie company or |
|
|
|
FOR
| | them. It has real high
| | quality glass and exceptional silvering. The |
|
light is priced well below
| | the Hella lamp that is actually not as well |
|
|
|
made
| | (IMHO).
| | By all means do the relay conversion and |
|
|
|
as
| | already suggested a
| | separate feed to the bat is a real good idea |
|
|
|
.
| | Since the control voltage
| | for the relay coils is coming from the |
|
|
|
original
| | headlight supply there
| | will still be no worry of leaving the light |
|
|
|
on
| | by accident.
| | Take the time to clean and lube the 169 |
|
|
|
switch
| | in any event. Most of
| | the 169 failures stem from dirty contacts |
|
|
|
and/or
| | a plunger spring that
| | has lost it's strength due to rust or |
|
|
|
heating.
| | Clean all traces of
| | corrosion and lube with a bit of anti sieze |
|
|
|
on
| | the cotact surfaces and
| | pivot points. The 169 will serve many years |
|
|
|
if
| | maintained or it can go
| | up in a whiff as soon as lack of maintenance |
|
catches up with you.
