Default Favorite Thread: File Points to Fix Clock
CF'ers,

Finally got around to yanking the clock and following Strats-n-Vettes lead...my clock is now tickin' and tockin' and clackin', hardwired to transformed line current until I get it back in the car. Holding steady for days now. Clearly one of my favorite threads and one all newbies should be alerted to.

Thanks and enjoy,
Steve

Mine's replaced with a digital oil temp gauge. When I'm in the Vette, I don't care what time it is...
