A 1 wire jobby needs to get excited to produce a decent charge. AKA, rev a cold engine up to make it do the needful.

Probably why I hate the fookin things.

i debated changing it over to the ford version, but that would require a regulator and basically rewiring the ingnition. we decided it would keep the truck looking cleaner and require less time and money spend at the shop to get it done. especially since i had been ther since 9am.

I doubt you'd recognize it if you drove it again.


It's going to be different more soon.


Yes that's totally the way I meant to say that.
