 that the fuse on the firewall is a perfect "Metershunt"-----Will explain t=
o those who do not understand-----four plugs pull about 40 to 50 amps.---do=
 not overdo jumping to positive battery terminal ''''   '''''power for no m=
ore than 10 seconds at a time, let cool for ten and do it again.     Shure =
like to tinker with those little  Hitlers V3 buggers.           Hagar.     =
