[Public-List] Yanmar 2GM Starting Current

[Gordon Laco]

Well good for you for grappling that job Greg!

SURPRISE still has the old rat's nest of wiring complete with a switch  
panel with such perplexing labels as 'windshield wiper' and 'blower'  
which in that case actually turns on the steaming light...

I really should deal with it but quail at the sight of it...  Hello  
Bob Crinion - yes I know you send me advice that makes it all look  
simple...

Gord
