I'm suprised anybody still uses beanies on telephone wire! I've never had a bad 3M scotchlok, And i use regular pliers. you have to make sure the scotchlok is flat on top after you crimp it and not crooked. I thought only alarm guys use those crappy beanies. Also you mentioned the 66 block went bad. Sounds like you have this block mounted somewhere moisture is a problem. I've seen this on blocks mounted in wet basements, it starts to turn green and corrodes the pins giving you problems static & NDT. Don't forget about pins that might be spread out, easily fixed with a pair of needle noses.Remember one wire per pin too , I see bellsouth techs make this mistake numerous times! But as far as a 66 block going bad ,How did you come up with that conclusion?By the way i salvage old 66 blocks pick the wires out and sand the posts to give them a newer look or take off writing!
