I do love this list. After over 20 yrs, I still pull some nuggets.
Forever (it seems), I had to solder tips of wires in bullet connectors as a=
ny attempt to crimp, just broke the barrel of the connector.=C2=A0 Having m=
y own opinions on solder vs crimp, I made the best of it by cleaning the po=
inty end of the connector, stripping 1/4 inch of wire and inserting through=
the hole, then solder. That left the standed wire flexible when it exited =
the barrel.=C2=A0
Crimping seems much simpler...=C2=A0 Now I know where to find crimpable bul=
lets!
This will be handy as the DPO cut a perfectly good harness up during his di=
ssamembly of both TR3s I recently purchased. I dont think he knew what or h=
ow bullet connectors worked.** triumphs@autox.team.net **
