Re: [AMC-list] DuraSpark working BUT.

Yep. So either check the system with a volt meter for a voltage rise when running or get the free check at an advance auto or such. 
    I've had that glow on several ramblers. No big deal as the light will go full bright if the system fails completely. When that happens see Billd over on www.theamcforum.com he is repaired Motorolas and very meticulous without being high priced. He will do anything from making it work to a full on restoration.

this may be the well known amc glowing alt light syndrome.  the bulb
resistance was actually part of the ckt, and it's vy difficult to find
the original bulb now.  if you sub a modern [brighter] bulb, you get
the glow.

the -alt- still works properly.
