  You can actually make one of these out of any relay, the key is timing it to turn on and off very rapidly. Amazon actually sells one with and without a red indicator lamp. The bad thing is that by turning it on and off rapidly the high voltage from the magnetic field collapsing (the arc flash you see) is going to eat the contact up quick, and then fuse the two together eventually. A 1N4007 diode backwards (anode on +) on the coil will prevent arcing, but whether it still does the same thing I dunno I've never tried it.

  Years ago I took a standard plastic housed relay and made it buzz like the one that was for my car above but you could BARELY hear it buzzing. It was so muted it would not work. The buzzer on this setup with the stamped steel lid and then with it not being tightly crimped to the base makes a nicely audible noise.

  Hi, nice video of the beautiful deck. I installed a large Cumaru deck two summers ago. The wood has cupped and cracked a bit, but still looks good. This summer I am straightening the stair boards of the wraparound deck (the gaps between the boards have expanded and are visibly uneven). I'm also planning on sanding down the boards, mostly to straighten the few spots where the cupping might almost make you trip over the boards. I have a hidden fastener system with grooved deck boards, so using a large drum sander will be easier. Two questions for you: Have your deck boards shown signs of cupping or warping over the years? Also, how do the boards look with the stain after several seasons? Do you see the need to "reseal" the wood with oils every year or every other year? My rear deck is mostly in direct sunlight in the summer but the house shadows it for half the day. I also live outside Chicago, so the deck sees a good amount of snow on it and the thawing and freezing/refreezing of the water and ice might not do the hairline cracks in the wood too much good. I am also planning on maybe trying to use some filler for large cracks in the deck boards before I stain them again. I would appreciate any input you might have just to find out what experience other people have with Cumaru decks. Thank You, Tom

  Looks like I got them in March of 2015 and so far they have been holding up fine. When I first got them I applied the Mequiers Cleaner/wax to them and then a few years later when I put in the reproduction T3 headlight bulbs I cleaned them up once again and applied the wax to all of the surfaces. Every once in a while I have to clean off the bugs and so far have not noticed any plating issues. Pictures from when I got them in 2015: www.flickr.com/photos/121766713@N04/albums/72157651137323400

  Sounds like RF noise. Sometimes It can come through your speakers even if you don't have the radio on. What plugs are you running? Did you recently switch? Most modern plugs have an internal Diode that helps prevent RF interference but plugs like the copper NGK R's don't have any sort of resistor. This can be exacerbated by leaking plug wires or OGF in the wiring.

• 
  @StlNovas3 ай бұрын

  Thanks for the suggestion. The noise has been there since I got the car back in 2012. I'm running a stock ignition points system with original plugs and reproduction wires. If it was an RF issue I would think that with the engine at let's say 2200 RPM whether in 3rd gear or in 2nd gear going at a slower vehicle speed in 2nd gear, the noise would be there but it's not. I've also been going down hills at speed and pushed in the clutch to allow the engine to go to idle or even shut the motor off at speed and coasted and the noise was there. Goofy thing too is it's always not present and could be due to a tailwind or headwind. Being an audio installer since the late 70's I did have ignition system issues with something like a bad wire arcing to ground but it was a ticking noise and then if I had a whining noise, sometimes it was a bad diode in the alternator allowing more of an AC ripple to get into the DC. Again, thanks for your input.

  I looked at some still pictures I had in another site and the passenger side it looks like I used existing bolts for the heater box as the panel I made has 2 holes in it and can be seen more readily after the panel got painted. As far as the driver's side I kinda wonder if I used velcro on it as I cannot see any holes in that panel although I have before made a spanner bar inside the hole for the speaker and this attaches to the panel and then some screws through it into the cars kick panel and then the mounting bar gets covered up by the speaker being installed. I did talk to the old owner of the truck as him and another person have opened some A&W franchises here in the Saint Louis area and he tells me someone in France bought it a few years back.

The cupping is so minor on my installation that you cannot feel it walking across it nor is it easily seen unless you do like I did with a straight edge across the tops and then barely sliding a penny under the gap and this is on just a few spots. It's now been over 10 years since I installed the boards and all is good and holding up VERY well.

I was able to extract and reinsert the terminals without damage.

  @StlNovas Жыл бұрын

  Henry, You need to ground out the sender wire to see if you can get the gauge to read empty or below. If it does not, then it might just be ONE issue from that test point forward towards and through the gauge BUT be aware that even if you get that working right you still could have a sending unit issue and/or with the sender's ground. To then test further you will need to do some tests like I did WITH the resistors. I used to think that just grounding the sender wire to get the gauge to read empty or below and then leaving it disconnected to get the gauge to read full or above was enough, but it is NOT. A quick search and I think you have a 0-90 ohm sender and if so, get something close to a 90 ohm resistor ( or anywhere from let's say 80 to 100 ohms) and then another resistor close to 45 ohms (or anywhere from let's say 40-50 ohms) and then another one close to 22.5 ohms (or anywhere from let's say 20-25 ohms).
