pjvr99 Posted September 6, 2016 Share Posted September 6, 2016 T56-56 shows what's good and what's not. Mag plugs are checked every bpo. Fuzz and slivers less than 1/16" diameter are not a problem. During break-in on a new RGB slivers are commonly found. Chunks of any size are reason for concern, and require further investigation or power plant removal. Using a multimeter a resistance of less than 20000 ohm (20k) requires magplugs be removed and visually inspected. On my test cell I had a system of LEDs that were hooked up with crocodile clips - 1 for each plug. I can't tell you how many times that saved us tearing up an engine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
herky400M Posted September 6, 2016 Author Share Posted September 6, 2016 P, thx 4 the answer, do you use any TO or guideline, or is this purely out off experience. I know that every approach is personal and I look at a certain way to this and some else approaches it from his:her way. are there standard samples? how do you manage this. best regards Bob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pjvr99 Posted September 6, 2016 Share Posted September 6, 2016 T.O. 2J-T56-56 ADH and RGB magplugs are covered completely Bob. Experience helps a lot too. Only thing I always made a point of doing is getting the ground lead of the multimeter onto the body of the mag plug. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
