Firewall power leads

[SeattleSy#1255]

where exactly are the powerleads on the firewall...

using fuse block with SMC alki just isn't cutting it...wierd shit happens!

I forgot which one I found, but either the engine lamp is connected to a power lead, or one of the leads on the passenger side of the IC relay is hot (I think it's the left most when looking at the front of the truck) If you have a voltmeter it'd only take a sec to figure it out :wink:

On the firewall right above your transmission dipstick is the positive power point.

I dont think id load it up too much.
Alky should be ok, way better than the fuse box.
I prefer the battery or right off the alternator for high current items.

go for the throat, strait to the alternator.
