Positive ground limits you to installing just about nothing electrical to
your auto. Stereos, C-phones, or what else you might want to install at any
latter date. There just might be the time that you need a jump and no
matter how observant you are, you turn your eyes for a second--its hooked
up wrong and something is going to burn!! Very few people even know about
+ground. Do yourself a favor; go -ground.
Step 1. Reverse the wires on the ammeter.
Step 2. Loosen the four screws on the wiper motor gear box cover and rotate
the wiper stop switch 180 degrees, this will keep the wiper blades stopping
in the same position.
Step 3. Polarize the same way as normal.
Step 4. Have two beers, one for you and one for me.
P.S. You might want to remove the low tension wires on the coil, rotate the
coil 180 degrees, and replace the wires in the same relative position.
(peace of mind thing)
Just think, I received $50 every time that I did this job.
