Try stripping the wire about twice as long as needed, fold stripped part in half, crimp. You may need to fill the connector a bit more (shrug). I have also trimmed the "ears" or "flags" down some with dikes to match smaller wire better. If the flag portion is too long it won't crimp/fold down correctly. -- Leon Fisk Grand Rapids MI/Zone 5b Remove no.spam for email |
