How The Electrical System Works In Your '70s Classic U.S. Car:: This book was written in 1970 to cover auto electrical systems used from the late '60s into the '80s...

BEFORE YOU BEGIN TO RESTORE A '60S TO '80S CAR, KNOW THE "HOW IT WORKS" OF ITS ELECTRICAL SYSTEM! Written by me in 1970, this book is a one-of-a- kind reference on how the electrical system of your 1960 to late 1980 U.S. car actually works! Today, there are no other how-it-works Tech Books for '70s era classics! So get this easy-reading "blast from the past" and actually know how every major electrical subsystem of your "classic" car works. Here's a partial list of its contents: Starting Motor: solenoid and overrunning clutch Batteries: specific gravity, cranking power & temperature Charging: generators, alternators, regulators (all) Ignition: conventional, solid-state electronic (all) Spark coil, distributor, advance, timing HV Cables, plugs, points, ignition sensor, capacitive- discharge ignition, transistor inductive ignition Lighting and signaling (all), auto headlight dimmer, Sequential tail lights Sensors, instruments and indicators (all) Tandem brake system and warning light Low fuel indicating system Anti-skid braking Electronic emission control Fuel injection Cruise control Tests and equipment: timing, dwell, voltage. Ignition analyzer electronics Schematics, functional diagrams and photos included, as well as data tables. Some electrical/electronic know-how will be a plus, but it is written for everyone. Focus is on HOW-IT WORKS. If you know that, repairs or replacements will be much easier, and costly mistakes may be averted. To my knowledge, this is the only true 1970s era car electrical/electronic book available at ANY PRICE. (It was also the first book to cover automotive electronics!) You can read the final chapters and see what yesterday's car makers "thought" the future would hold! Of course, what I wrote about back then is what you see now and it was 100% true at the time. Read this book and keep it handy as you restore your 'CLASSIC CAR to its former glory!
