Jessica Posted March 16, 2013 Report Share Posted March 16, 2013 Because my comment was directly addressing the method you mentioned in the previous post. lol? oh. yeah. /facepalm At least the video you posted he heated the wire up. I think a lot of people don't understand soldering. The o.p.'s video does a nice job of getting a good bond too. Rest in peace, walled 87 accord build log 03' Corolla build with AA Mayhem inside.

pontformulalt1 Posted March 16, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 16, 2013 Nice video That's roughly how I do mine: except I don't squeeze it as tightly with the pliers - I squeeze it just enough that the lug doesn't move/shift/fall off when I'm working with it thanks for the compliment....I crimp them only enough to get rid of dead space then fill it with solder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
