light

Get Firefox for your web browser. It will spell check for you with the right click of your mouse over any word it underlined in red.
It's helped me considerably.

And if it helps you, it will help us-help you.

I took the light out, even though it worked. I want a clean stripped engine bay. Less weight, less clutter.

i left mine, acually painted it up all nice n fancy like, it doesent cause a drain...

now when i was looking at the car before i bought it and when i signed the papers the guy had left the light on both times and said it might have a charging issue. i didnt say any thing as it lowered the price.
the alternator output isnt so hot right not but it starts and runs every time

If I may, I will attempt to break it down for the laymen....He said,

Translation: "I think that the original design of the car has aspects that should be implemented on today's newer cars increasing the functionality of the vehicle by allowing the average user to utilize the full potential of the automobile. Furthermore, this feature allows maintenance of the engine in situations where light is absent and or allows light to be placed in areas that are bereft of light."

I took out the a/c, cruise control, charcoal canister and even the wiper fluid reservoir... but I couldn't bring myself to get rid of the light.
