Re: 1966 ammeter with new engine, alternator, and wiring harness

On a clean rewire I would still would leave it out, they are seeing with the factory harness a lot of heat. It may be the age of the windings, breakdown of the insulation or corrosion driving the resistance up but they are burning up. I'll dig a few out and post some pictures and y'all can let folks what you think.
