Re: Power to the new harness...battery charger

[Butch Edison <waedison@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Could you post more information on using a battery charger to test the wiring systems? Is the idea to either set the charger at a lower amperage than the battery or the alternator would put out, or do battery chargers do that automatically? I'm putting in all new harnesses in my 64 Sport Fury and would appreciate whatever advice you have.  Do you hook the ground to the car body and the hot lead to the big red wire that feeds through the ammeter? 

Thanks/Butch/Ferndale, WA

Thaks Mike for putting in the link to your project pics.  I really enjoy 
looking at the journey of a Mopar done by a guy in his garage. Those befor 
pics are good evidence that under something that looks good can be hidden 
horrors.  I can certainly relate  to many of your pics as I work on my 64 
Dodge.  I am very thankfull that my rust issues have been pretty minor. Your 
pics and getting the 64 Fury running and out of the way has  got me revved 
up to get back to my Dodge project ( pics at the link below my name here) 
CARRY ON!....................MO
