    Look at all the parts I got (I need to return a couple because I ordered the wrong parts).

    I spoke too soon, again. The terminals I thought were wrong are in fact correct.
    The ones I ordered after thinking that the ones I ordered to begin with were wrong are in fact were the wrong ones.
    I am missing 16GA. terminals (couldn't find on https://www.waytekwire.com/), so I ordered those from a different site.

    You need "tanged" terminals if you buy the Bussmann RFRM that I did, even though people online say it uses "tangless".
    The site I ordered from says to use "tanged" and I thought it was a typo.

    It wasn’t that bad, the first group was there since 8am. Testing didn’t start until 11am. I got there at 10am, so waited until about 12pm.

    I waited in the Bristol Health parking lot until Bristol PD opened up the entrance for the Lot across the town hall.

    Then it was pretty quick. Results are 2-3 days - I’ll most likely be back for a 2nd test since exposure symptoms doesn’t show until 3-5 days…

    This may not apply to what your current project but it's a good source for electrical parts, terminals etc. spark plug wires, but this is
    probably good if you're restoring a 20's to 50's vehicle (cloth covered wires) etc.
    anyway, plenty of parts that may also help others if you're restoring an older cars motorcycles truck.
    I ordered from them for an older motorcycle repair good quality item's.

    @Cativelense take a look at Lesser Evil. They were growing like weeds, probably hiring & in Brookfield near the P.D. Who wouldn't want to work in a Pop Corn Factory?

    Messed up three wires.
    I have a system now so I have less carnage.
    I was inserting the wires for the switches and realized that I had them inserted into the spot that is for the accessories.

    All fixed and it's good now. Everything will be checked with a multi-meter before any power is applied.

    Good ole Brookfield decided to make the call for a two hour delay super late.

    Danbury was already on a delay due to staff shortages this week, and a few minutes ago they decided to cancel.

    Guess we'll wait and see what Brookfield decides to do.

    Re-read the Bussmann thread and changed my method of wiring the RFRM.

    I ordered a couple connectors that I messed up. Hopefully they’ll be here Friday.
