Piddling

If there is anything that makes this a hobby it is that I get to piddle around a little every night on something. Having a 2 year old and a full time job makes devoting much time on a regular basis nothing short of impossible. But I try to catch a few minutes here and there to make a little progress.

Tonight I replaced the condenser and added a ballast resistor in hopes that the modification would get it running again. But it did not. So we'll head on down the line over the weekend. I suspect the coil, but who knows. The good thing is that there isn't much that can be wrong.

After hitting a roadblock on getting it restarted, I sanded and repainted the aftermarket turnsignal assembly that was added. Looks like a brand new one now. Besides buying a fuel filter and some different fuel line shutoff fittings, that is all that I have done.
