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 [email protected] 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 <[email protected]> > To: <[email protected]> > 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:* [email protected] > [mailto:[email protected]]*On Behalf Of *Joel Aronson > *Sent:* Tuesday, July 24, 2012 3:53 PM > *To:* [email protected] > *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, [email protected] > <mailto:[email protected]> <[email protected] > <mailto:[email protected]>> 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 > [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> > > > > -- > Joel > 301 541 8551 > > > _______________________________________________ > This List is provided by the C&C Photo Album > http://www.cncphotoalbum.com > [email protected] -- Graham Collins Secret Plans C&C 35-III #11 _______________________________________________ This List is provided by the C&C Photo Album http://www.cncphotoalbum.com [email protected] _______________________________________________ This List is provided by the C&C Photo Album http://www.cncphotoalbum.com [email protected]
