[FC] electrical question...

[Dale Dewald]

Hello Bill,

BEFORE you drive your Rampside again, check the electrical connector 
between the main body wiring harness and the engine harness.  In 
particular, look at the #10 red wire (or largest diameter wire of any 
color) and its connector pins.  Make sure that they are clean so that there 
is not high resistance at this connection.  This connector can overheat to 
the point of catching fire.  Due to the proximity of the LH carb, any small 
gas leaks could be cause for disaster.
