Speaking of 16 volts.....

I turn the batt off now. Didn't for four years. Then all that carnage in one weekend. Has anybody else checked their 16 volt charger for AC voltage? When an automotive alternator does that it's because the rectifier failed. That converts AC to DC. Not sure about a charger.

MSD replaced that box, FAST fixed both ECUs. Kinda pricey weekend.

I turned the master cut off switch off while Slate's ECU & my back up MSD box was in it. Have not had another race, but will do that from now on .
Scared of that charger now.
