Ken,

You've warmed the cockles of my heart (whatever the heck that means!).
Now I don't feel nearly as bad about my week with all it's
defugalties.

Today went a little better:

I tackled the shorted VSS. Turns out, I'd had to work on it once
before. There are 3 leads (+12VDC, Gnd, Output) coming out of a small
molded plastic housing which contains the Hall Effect sensor and
whatever other circuitry. Those wires have VERY heat sensitive
insulation and are of larger than necessary gauge. When I worked on
it before, the length of the accessible wires was left at about 5/16".
There is no residual insulation on any one of the 3 wires -- just one
glob through which the wires run. I was able to spread the wires 120*
apart and solder new long leads to them without creating a new short
-- at least for now. Then I covered the whole mess with Shoe Goop
(Yes, that's what I said -- it's good stuff for lots of things and
sets up fast). Then put a couple of layers of shrink tube over each
wire, extending down into the Goop. Finally, several layers of shrink
tube over all 3 wires and the exposed portion of the housing. MAYBE
it will hold up down there under the exhaust manifold. Or maybe I'll
soon re-install a short speedometer cable to position the VSS in a
cooler area.

For the first time, I disassembled the whole VSS. Its housing
consists of two shells sealed with a gasket and held together with 4
machine screws. In one half is a wheel containing magnets oriented
perpendicular to the above mentioned sealed module. As one pole of a
magnet passes the Hall Effect sensor, the output line is Set. When a
pole of the opposite polarity passes, the output line is Reset. So,
the establishment of the "2-pulse" or "4-pulse" or other rating is
determined by the number of magnets in the molded magnet wheel -- sort
of like the Pertronix ignition modules. It's easy to test -- don't
need the 'scope or rotary driver I've used in the past: Just supply
power and monitor the output with an analog meter -- or possibly a
test lamp or LED.

Another good event today: I installed the E8094 fuel pump. 17psi max
vs the 125 psi max E8228. I'd expected to have to touch up the
regulator setting. Nope. It runs just fine as-is. During a
subsequent test drive, I even did a full-throttle hill climb which
called for 96% injector duty cycle -- no sign of any starvation. I'm
happy.

We'll be making a 200 mile test run tomorrow for Jerry Holloway's
birthday party. If all goes well, we'll head for Shawnee on Tuesday
AM.
