And then I took a gander at my fender to see how/if I could use existing holes to mount the manifold etc. And then I realized that my fender has been cut and it's rotting out anyway, so if I need to drill more holes it won't hurt anything
That un used fuel filter would make a great air filter!
I/M is very common. If your cheap hose breaks/blows you can borrow someone elses that way! Seriously it's very handy to be able to swap attachments!
Relay for what, the pressure switch or clutch or something? I would use one just to avoid a sensor switch fusing closed. Ergo, with a relay you can wire important actuators as fail safe and reduce current on the primary switch, prolonging its life.Can someone school me on relays for belt-driven compressors? Marco gave me some input yesterday, but still not convinced I need a relay...
Why the reluctance to use a relay? :-/
Not necessarily, with a relay you can tap just about any existing hot or ignition-on circuit for the control side. It's very low current. You hang a fuse from the battery to the relay high side, put the relay right by the battery and a decent wire to the clutch.I'm not a sparky. I'm scared. This is how I deal with electrical problems:
Actually I'll give it a little more thought today. So if I use a relay, I need fused power for the switch side of things (in case there's a short at some point) and fused power for the clutch? So 2 separate fused circuits? I've never used a relay before.
If yo uare going ot use a dash circuit, you should use a relay......
Or........you know you will need it anyway.....go ahead and put in a accesory fuse box now! That way your rock lights, air comp, fridge and LED array are taken care of!
