DADS50:
I bought them from Classic Parts of America. I found a note that indicates the wires are as you described.

BELTFED:
The voltage output of my battery charger is 8.0 volts. The output of my generator (with the engine running) is 7.9 volts.

The following voltages were measured using a multimeter with the negative probe attached to a wire that was inserted between the negative battery cable and the battery post.
With the engine off and the lights on, here's the voltages I've measured:
Battery: 6.2 volts
End of positive battery cable where it attaches to the starter: 5.6 volts
Hot wire feeding light switch: 5.3 volts
Tail light fuse terminal: 5.0 volts
Tail light wire at tail light: 4.8 volts

With the engine running, the voltage at the tail light wire is 6.0 volts.

Are any of these voltage drops significant?



My dad always told me, "Don't force it, get a bigger hammer".
