Re: Horn Wiring

Yes, I was pretty sure that there was no way but, sometimes people come up with things I never think of.
Going with horn button on column, dash or, maybe even floor!

Re: Harley Davidson low pressure brake light witch

Explain low pressure brake light switch. I did not know pressure activated brake switches
have different ratings as hydraulic brake fluid pressure is usually way up there.

Removing '35 Dash Light Switch

Did a search and could not find an answer.
Is the switch removed by squeezing in the tabs on the side and pushing switch out from behind? I want to remove the switch with out any destruction.

Re: 1935 Tudor Bracket ID

Yeah, that is what I thought. It is also welded on the flatter end.
It seems like it must have been on there for decades though because
the rust is about the same as the rest of the floors.

Re: No Oil Pressure While Cranking

Update. I decided to just test fire it-lots of oil pressure. No radiator yet so I only ran it for a brief period. Will see how it goes when I can get it up to temp.
Thanks for all the advice.
