Alan,
Been there done that. Typically the old stator tube is so rusty as to make
messing with this NOT worth my time and effort. The wires are sometimes
near impossible to remove. Moss sells a really nice stator tube, and the
new wiring harness fits down very nicely without having to cut off one of
the bullets. What I'm saying is that IF you can get the wires out, the
inside of the tube will still be a bloody mess.
I know, I just built up a 100M trafficator switch for an owner in Arizona.
His stator tube was very rusted and the wires would not budge. In the
trash it went, and I ordered one from Moss. And yes, I saved the almost
impossible to find "Lantern" spring on the stator tube!
Plus, who would want to pt their switch on a rusty old stator tube?
I have not forgotten, just busy. I'll email you about mailing the battery
cases to Michael
Cheers,
Curt
