I didn't get a chance to tinker with it anymore this weekend. I had to put it back on as it was and move the truck back behind the shop (mom likes parking her car in the garage). I'll keep this stuff in mind when I'm home again in a month after exams.
This Rochester giving me issues constantly is the biggest reason I'm upgrading to something much nicer. I may have to keep it around as a paper weight, or make a desk lamp out of it. A Rochester has to be good for something.
