Hi everyone/anyone
I own a 1968 Triumph Herald 1250 which currently is positive earth, does anyone have details of how to convert this to negative earth. I am not overly great with technical instructions so plain english would be good.
Thanking you in anticipation
Kev :D [/b]

Hi

A look online found this guide:

http://www.mgcars.org.uk/midgetspriteclub/sprite/spriteposneg.htm

I can't vouch for its accuracy mind, but should be a useful pointer!!

hehe

I did it years ago on some old car or other, but I am a bit vague on the specifics, hence searching for something written by someone who has done it recently!

cheers

Hi Rick
Finally plucked up courage to have a go at converting my Herald to neg earth, and it was really easy and took no time at all. There is no tacho in a 1250 so that bit i didnt need to do, and the rest was straight forward, my next project maybe to convert from a dynamo to an alternator, any ideas?????
Thanks again for your help
Kev :)
