I didn’t do any activities in the 70s……

PROTIP: alcohol removes thermal grease, Zep removes anodizing…….

Which Zep product did that? Must be very caustic.

 

[mr_rye89]

The purple degreaser, ammonia based. D’oh!

Oven cleaner does a good job stripping anodize color as well.

Kyle will be keeping it real pretty soon...

Yeah the goodie box should be here this afternoon. I still need to insulate the transformer bolts, get nylon washers, and heat shrink for the transformer leads……

I retired so I could see the boxes arriving.

Exactly.

Is it a good idea to insulate the transformer bolts on a 400? Why insulate the transformer bolts?

Swing by McDonalds.... Their straws from the soda fountain are larger than regular straws and fit perfect.

You can grab a happy meal too.

Bonus.

 

[mr_rye89]

The package is here safe, I got to it before Perry could.

Two Green Chile Doubles and a medium Powerade……Straws didn’t fit. just used packing tape. Used nylon washers to isolate the tranny from the chassis. Now looking at how things fit.

 

[J!m]

Did you install that outlet right before the picture?
