It's 40 plus years of screwing stuff up -- learning the hard way... At some point you start to gather enough info to be really dangerous. :D :thumbsup:

Okay -- I want you to know that I went down to the shed in my pajamas and slippers - in the POURING RAIN to get you some info on the stuff I keep around the shed for PRE sanding prep! Use whatever. Note the OMNI IS VERY STRONG STUFF.... the PPG Acryli-Clean and the Eastwood Pre can be used on almost ANY paint.

I saw that typo before I'd refreshed that page and saw the inevitable responses and immediately wanted to hide in a closet. :faint:

Off to acquired some fish-eye eliminator (hopefully it works) and get the dash back together.

Then trouble shoot the source of an apparent discharge condition the car has while driving. Situation is I'll drive the car 5-10 miles, restart once is OK, second time it starts but you can notice it's weak, third or fourth time the stater won't engage. Starter is a new Powermaster mini.

Battery is showing 12.6-7 volts so all the cells appear to be good.

I typically keep it on a float charger so right after disconnecting and testing I'll get a battery reading of 13.1-13.2v.

Cranking voltage on the new Autometer voltage gauge shows 11v.

Idling voltage 14.8-15v Alternator is new Powermaster 100 amp rated at 14.8v.

Idle with lights and heater on 14.2v on the gauge.

Since I didn't install the harnesses I'm going to check all the front harness grounds first and install grounding washers if needed.

Battery is a Kirkland about a year old with little usage.
