Chuck, thanks for the info and the offer. I can't accept though because I already made a commitment to purchase parts from Jeff at ttender.com, and I don't want to be a bad customer and back out. It's okay though, the pieces are super cheap.
Also, no brake cleaner! Okay, everything will just get a good wipe down.
I realized also what is probably the source of my trouble. I don't have a variable output ac transformer, I had wired onto a cheap ho transformer's ac ports! They are pushing 20volts ac!!! Literature says around 6 to 12 is all that's needed?!? Oops. I'm beating the whole thing to shreds! Time to visit the parents and come back with dad's ZW!!!
