Default Zip Vacuum Fix Book Review

I have headlites that are always up. Ordered the $10 "troubleshooting 68-82 headlite doors and wiper doors" from Zip. Written by Frank Prow, 1995. Seven pages of text and ten pages of diagrams. I am thinking he is not a tech writer, but if you can get thru the writing, it could be helpful. Or just ax me, I'll look it up. Stevo :yesnod:

There's also this one Vette Vacuum , don't know how good it is but someone just told me it's on sale at ZIP for $9. I think the guy is a forum member too.

C3...yes, that's the same book.
Armstrong...the relay repair is not part of the pamphlet, so I will keep it as I will probably be doing the relays some day. Thanks :seeya
