Re: [DML] Re: Mystery capacitor

[Ian Yanagisawa <texas.twister@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Bill:
I'd be curious to see your ground buss schematic. This car has a lot of electrical "noise" that has played havoc with my cruise control and the ignition portion of my Megasquirt system.  I have run a longer cable from the ground to the original frame location and from there to a starter mounting bolt and from there to the bulkhead ground connection which helped a lot, but still has not cured all the noise problems that show up especially over about 3000 rpm.  Does anyone know what the chief source of the noise is?

Thanks,

Ian
