Wires are run, test fired with an added panel light as exciter and it works but I need to rev the engine a bit to get it to start charging and turn the light out. Not sure why.
Addendum: Two issues. One, not enough ballast from the miniature bulb. Need a resistor. Two, alt may not be in top shape since it was run on the '49er for some time. Added bonus, maybe testing with the trickler charger on is a bad idea? D'oh!
Part of this turned out to be an alternator that was not working properly. The bulb alone would probably have been enough had the alternator been working right. A replacement was done later.
