Wiring and electricity in general is just black magic to me. I don't know how it works or how wizards make electricity I just believe it works. I am enlisting the help of my father(software engineer) to help me wire my buggy. But now I'm concerned because I don't know where I'm going to come up with a tear collector or a moral rectifier! Are these parts still available?

Hey Dale where are you pulling your hot to the carb from. Maybe from the really tight wire?

Are the magic smoke things used instead of fuses? Are they compatible with fuses? Reason I ask is, A PO of mine didn't install any fuses. I suspect he had a couple of those magic smoke things hidden somewhere because I let some smoke get loose a couple of times while installing a fuse block.

Also, he replaced the bat with wasps ... doesn't seem to make any difference.

LUCAS has magic smoke replacement, but I am not sure if will work with this configuration since its not a LUCAS product...

Its missing the Moral Certitude that always goes in tandem with the Moral Rectifier. Its a little out of date, as Magic Smoke has now been identified as the same as that which is used to blow into nether regions while bench racing and telling other fanciful tales.

Thanks for the laughs Dale.

I respect all your opinions but the more you guys post the more confused I become.

I am about 95% complete on my build , so in the morning I am going to start taking the wiring back out of my buggy!!

Sure hope I can find some of these parts I have left off.

I don't know about "touch tongue here" The last time I tried that was winter on a pole and i got stuck!! Also how expensive is that chip? If you use one that cost $5000. vs. $ a buck fifty, will it work better? HMMMMM.
