Extra noise suppressor. Many Westfalia's had them on the output and the lead
for the warning light circuit.

Subject: Can somebody identify/explain these?

I was trying to get to my Idle Control Computer and found this thing hidden
in the space:

618

It looks like something I would've found in Grandaddy's barn, and therefore
I want to think it has something to do with horseshoeing, but I don't know.

I decided to put the alternator from my '86 in my '87 because I thought it
was making some bearing noise, and when I picked it up it was like this:

010

That wasn't the way the alternator was configured in the '87 so I changed it
around. Anybody know what's going on there?

Cya,

Robert
