    Any wiring issue was SUPPOSED to be corrected at time of rebuild as the entire engine harness was to be replaced. That didn’t happen. Another reason why his final bill was out of line and I wasn’t paying that full amount.

    The Bible tells us to boast only of our weaknesses.

    And that pride goeth before the fall.

    You have chosen wisely.

    Sealant and proper gaskets are an amazing thing. It’s sad that these cheap, simple items are not used properly.

    Need some help again. Wipers aren’t working. They are attempting to but just barely move. The switch activates them as does turning the key on. They are not bound up. Put in my spare wiper motor to rule that out. Any suggestions?

    Would had guessed wiper motor since mine done something like that when it went out. Might have a grounded wire maybe? Maybe needs new fuse, sure you checked that. Not sure if it use a relay or not but could check that as well. Can you wire it up to work with out the switch to see if that is the problem? Sorry just spit balling so maybe you get some more hits with someone ion same experience.

    Probably the motor or linkage binding. You say it’s not binding. Take the arm off the motor, turn wipers on, see if it spins constantly in one direction. It should. Check linkage again while the arms off.

    We’re in a deep freeze. Trucks covered in ice. Started right up, shut off, had to add a gallon of coolant. Don’t see any leaks. Only added one gallon since inframe, 2 yrs ago. Hope this isn’t the beginning of a problem.
