Ford F-1540 Questions
#20

RodB
That twisted my mind up a bit at first and I was scratching my head for longer than I want to admit but it eventually sunk in with what they were doing.  Let’s put it this way… I’m glad I bought a few set of caps.  
I had some nice French non polarized made caps I temporarily wired under the chassis so I could press on but they were a bit too big. And I did not like the way I had to scab them in.   I liked the end result re-stuffing the can once I understood the configuration.  Getting that old cap out of the can was a but time consuming but a little heat was my friend.
