So I'm giving my engine the once over looking for any signs of trouble and
I notice that the flat copper ground strap running from near the coil to
the engine block has 2 green areas on it. So I reach in there and give it a
little wiggle and it just disintegrates into powder.. both spots just fall
apart...... Now there's an excellent reason to check out your
connections... if I had been back in the bush on some rainy day and it just
fell apart... I might have been trying to figure what the heck had
happened?... but in the comfort of my yard... I just made up a
replacement... cleaned all the connections, put some dielectric grease on
all the contact areas... and Bob's your uncle.

Next... I remember someone saying their speedo was making noises and they
put WD-40 on it.... Bingo!!... mine has been doing it for awhile also, one
shot in the hole on the plastic clip of the cable at the back of the gauge
and all's quite on the Syncro dash..... still working on that dif. lock
light... oh well... always something to keep the compulsive occupied.
