At the April 2006 meeting, George presented an interesting subject on the ignition system. I explained to him earlier that I was having issues with my car not starting like it should. Every time I tried to start, it would take numerous times for it to finally start. George used his multi-meter and tested the ballast resistor on my car. It’s exactly what he thought; the Electronic Control Unit wasn’t getting enough voltage for the car to start properly.
He explained to me that the reason for this fact is that with all of the wiring connectors there is, I lose half a volt at each one. Back when the car was brand new, this problem didn’t exist. But as time rolls by, age gets to the wires causing a loss of voltage.
He told me how to fix this, and in the April 2006 meeting, demonstrated the way to correct this problem. That’s why this article was written. Oh yeah, the vehicle that was used in this article is a 1973 Dodge Charger. Just thought you should know!"http://www.tvmoparclub.com/files/2006%20Newsletters/TVMC%20Newsletter%20May%202006.pdf
