Okay, so I should Leave it as it was and not take any other wires off of it?
I bought 2 terminal blocks to use for positive and ground connections in the engine compartment. Should I run the positive and negative battery wires to those terminals and then to where they connect to the starter solenoid and block? Or, should I run those wires direct and then jump back to the terminal blocks?

The ammeter measures the voltage drop across the shunt and converts that to amps flowing through it (amps = volts/resistance). regards, Graham Collins djhaug...@juno.com wrote: > One side went to the starter solenoid and the other to the alternator. > Then each side went to the ammeter... > What is its function? > > ---------- Original Message ---------- > From: Steve Thomas <sthom...@sympatico.ca> > To: <cnc-list@cnc-list.com> > Subject: Re: Stus-List Electrical Block > Date: Tue, 24 Jul 2012 16:01:31 -0400 > > Looks like it might be a current shunt for an ammeter. > -----Original Message----- > *From:* cnc-list-boun...@cnc-list.com > [mailto:cnc-list-boun...@cnc-list.com]*On Behalf Of *Joel Aronson > *Sent:* Tuesday, July 24, 2012 3:53 PM > *To:* cnc-list@cnc-list.com > *Subject:* Re: Stus-List Electrical Block > > Danny, > > Almost looks like a high amp fuse, but I think it is just a block. > Might want to move the bilge pump hose off that wire! > BTW, nice stuffing box, but I don't know the answer to the grease > question. > Joel > > On Tue, Jul 24, 2012 at 3:45 PM, djhaug...@juno.com > <mailto:djhaug...@juno.com> <djhaug...@juno.com > <mailto:djhaug...@juno.com>> wrote: > > > Another question.... > > Is this Positive block, just that a positive block or is it > something more? > > <iframe > > src="https://skydrive.live.com/embed?cid=CCBEFDFB44F8315F&resid=CCBEFDFB44F8315F%21309&authkey=ABkwZnrwurnZ08s > > <https://skydrive.live.com/embed?cid=CCBEFDFB44F8315F&resid=CCBEFDFB44F8315F%21309&authkey=ABkwZnrwurnZ08s>" > width="320" height="180" frameborder="0" scrolling="no"></iframe> > > or this link if that doesn't work... > > http://sdrv.ms/PebU41 > > Danny > > > _______________________________________________ > This List is provided by the C&C Photo Album > http://www.cncphotoalbum.com > CnC-List@cnc-list.com <mailto:CnC-List@cnc-list.com> > > > > -- > Joel > 301 541 8551 > > > _______________________________________________ > This List is provided by the C&C Photo Album > http://www.cncphotoalbum.com > CnC-List@cnc-list.com -- Graham Collins Secret Plans C&C 35-III #11 _______________________________________________ This List is provided by the C&C Photo Album http://www.cncphotoalbum.com CnC-List@cnc-list.com _______________________________________________ This List is provided by the C&C Photo Album http://www.cncphotoalbum.com CnC-List@cnc-list.com
