Re: Turn signal switch

As a bicycle nerd as well as a Pinzgauer nerd I keep a lot of bicycle inner tube material around for exactly this type of thing. I know that I have a section of standard thickness road bicycle (so pretty thin) inner tube rubber fitted between the crescent piece that you described and the steering ...

Hello

I don’t think so. You can see it connects to the diverter box I described. Item #61. Also the items in that pic are for the standard heater/vent system. Like in an M

Re: Lots of cheap heaters popping up


Wow! That is scary cheap. The Webastos have gone up crazy in price. I still have not purchased one but should have when I first started thinking about it.


I just purchased one of these. I'll post an update once I've had an opportunity to do some testing and compare to the Webasto.

UPDATE: No ...

Re: Lots of cheap heaters popping up

2024 Cyber Monday deal on AliExpress...

2KW Pakring Heater with a Petrol option for $120... 12V for sure, but elsewhere in the listing states 12V/24V. If needed, a 12V-24V stepdown converter is a small additional investment.

Re: High idle speed

Just dealt with a similar vacuum issue a couple days ago. Turned out to be a loosening nut at the base of the intake manifold at #4. Using brake cleaner to sleuth out the vacuum leak is a winning technique. If you're not familiar, have a look at the post linked below...

Re: Spout for Jerry can leaks


Are you aware of any moving parts within the breather? Anything which could wear out? Springs, flaps, seals?
It's just baffling to me why this would suddenly become an issue after so many years without an issue.


I'm not. I believe it is a static air inlet, but I could be mistaken. I just ...

Re: Spout for Jerry can leaks

Without breaking down the the physics of the spout's function, my experience is that it works optimally with an aggressive pour. When attempting to pour just a small amount of fuel from a full can I'll often experience the behavior that you described. However, when dumping a full can into the Pinz ...

Re: Tachometer with hourmeter

So are you proposing replacing the speedometer+trip_meter+odometer with a speedometer(GPS???)+tachometer?


Yes, a speedometer+trip_meter+odometer+tachometer in a single unit.

To Mr. Zero, how did you determine an appraised value and /or convince the insurance company of same?


Apparently it is a standard practice for American Family to cover classic/collectible vehicles up to the appraised value. AmFam actually brought this to my attention and referred me to an ...
