THE PORTAL HUB - Pinzgauers, Haflingers, Volvo 303s and more!

Well I could not get the link to work but just donated directly to you. Thank you Vince for keeping this going.

I am trying also but the link does not seem to work for me. It is probably a security thing on my end. Working on it.

Great job! I am glad you finally figured it out.

Those photos are probably in the default HEIC format. They can be easily converted to jpeg. The method varies depending on if you are using macOS or Windows.

Great work, Vince!

That's me!!

I purchased a similar one from Vince a couple years ago and it is top notch. He does superb work. Do not hesitate to grab this for your Pinz.

I concur.

Yes, I looked at getting one of the Pinztronix; again to shelf until needed. In the introductory thread it said "5 left in stock". What is the ongoing supply and support for the Pinztronix? thanks!

Thanks, Ron, for pursuing this. My Pinzgauer was a constant problem until I installed the PinzSSI. I have the 2.0 version, pretty sure. Since the installation it has been a new machine and a real pleasure. I cannot fathom going back to the pertronix civilian ignition that was a constant problem for ...

I also have a pair of optima yellow tops that are 8-9 years old and ding well.

Vince, have you considered a purpose made rust remover like EvapoRust? I have found it very effective on some tools but not a large tank as you describe. It works a little differently than the acids.

Thank you, yes it makes sense and confirms my thoughts as well. I do a lot of portable amateur radio and use a lot of LifePO4 batteries. Fortunately my primary vehicle charges at about 14.4v and does fairly well with them.

My other concern with the Optima LifePO4 battery is charging below freezing ...

-A lithium charger, or lithium charging algorithm, must be used for charging lithium batteries.
-Normally, no charging system or other modifications are required for use in cars and trucks.

These two bullet points seem to contradict each other. What do I not understand?

Great Job, Vince!!
