Pamco ignition connections
« on: April 01, 2013, 06:27:30 PM »
Notice there isn't bullet connections on the green wires that connect to the blue and yellow wires.... I'm not too familiar with electrical connections on these bikes but where can I get bullet connectors (what size) and do they have to be sautered?

 You can get bullet connectors at any NAPA, Pep Boys, Wal-Mart, etc. You will also need a crimping tool.
 They don't have to be soldered. Be sure to get the correct size connectors...blue should work, but you may have to fold the thin gauge wire over a couple of times. You'll also need a connector for the ground wire. I use the kind that have a loop and ground it to the frame.

If you can come to Orange, near the 55 and 91 freeways, I can do it for you, I have a complete vintage connection kit.

PM me.
