Thanks. When I read the rules I come to the same conclusion. I just seem to remember some discussion about it and couldn't find the thread.

Thanks again. It will be going away in the near...

I know I've seen this discussed, but a search was unproductive so....

2000 Civic Si, can the Evaporative Emission Purge Control Canister and associated control valves, filters, and vacuum lines be...

Tractor supply. Good idea.

Thanks chip. I thought it looked like it should be that simple, but I appreciate the first hand info. Really wanted to avoid doing unintended damage. Just to clarify, the contacts the IG1 goes...

Any suggestion on local sources for the welding cable? I know that a welding supply store sounds like the obvious answer, but I've checked 2 of them near me and neither had any bulk cable. I could...

This is a good discussion. It addresses several good issues. One of the small concerns I've had with the switch on the driver's side is that, on my car, the battery is on the PAX firewall. This...

Thanks Will. That is great info. The headlights etc is a great idea. I'd already thought that in a real emergency I don't really care what happens to the ALT so the testing is the only time it...

Thanks for the info. Pretty much confirms my suspicions. Cheaper and Lighter is is. We don't get to say that very often :)

While I'm asking these related questions, when wiring the Master switch, do you normally increase the wire size to account for longer runs, or just use the stock size? Stock appears to be 4 AWG. ...

Yup. There doesn't seem to be PERFECT location. The passenger side window also means you can't turn it on after you are all strapped in and realize the car won't start because it is off. The...

Great! My first thought was that you were referencing said shows, but I just wanted to be sure!

As for the other, the switch I have does not have normally opened contact or included resistor. ...

Thanks again for the quick reply Greg. So, on the bottom of the car? Just kidding. My thought is just inside the window since that makes it easily accessible, unless that is the side wedged into...

Thanks for the quick reply Greg. Since you have lots of Honda experience, is there any method that risks damaging the ALT more than others?

Also, do you mean The black (GRND) vs. Red(POS) on...

I am at the point of installing the master switch in my car. I know there are a lot of posts about it on this forum, but I thought I would get folks most current views. I've read the GCR in regards...

Hi all. I know there are tons of posts about master switch wiring and I've looked at most of them. I understand the general goal, but hope someone can answer a specific question.

I have a...

Where do we PayPal donations? I tried the button on page 2 but got "smiles"? And what was the comment about emailing Greg?

Thanks.

I've actually gotten pretty lucky Matt. The duct tape I'm using seems to hold well for a day or two and then sorta loses its adhesion and falls off the glass. I have to reapply tape occasionally but...

Thanks Greg. And everyone else.

Thanks Blake. That's been my experience too. I think it might have been Tom Fowler who first suggested it to me.

So do y'all just release the clutch or do you slip it?

thanks again.

Greg,

I just happened to stumble upon the STL in car video from the 2013 Runoffs. It appears that you do not heel and toe or rev match on the downshifts? Is this true?

I've heard it told...

I've had good luck with that method on the floor pans and other accessible areas too. The u!
Ultimate challenge is the upside down seam with a little bit larger than perfect gap. Talk about ugly! ...

Thanks Mike. Once again it's good to be reassured it looks like poopsie. I must be doing it right:).

Unfortunately a copper backing plate is not an option. Thanks for the reassurance that everyone blows holes in sheet. I think part of my problem is I am worrying too much about blowing holes instead...

Oh. Like a plug weld. Got it.

While we are at it, what's really kicking my ass is the plates for the tubes coming forward toward the firewall. Between difficult access, multiple seams on the car, weird joint orientation, and thin...
