electrics question
Folks
My Pinz has never been a standard model. A widened civilian body, a non-split windscreen(exception in Austria), fuses like the swiss ones, and a weird combined ignition switch/light switch.
Now the wiring harness has disintegrated, and the closest I could get to the original one is a swiss ...

I have used these rims for years, until I changed to disk brakes from the Diesel, and thus I use 5 x 130 now.

Re: Starter sometimes fails to engage
btw, there are two versions of the starter
http://up.picr.de/17597103ne.jpg
the left one is V2
they obviously require different spare parts
btw both versions are currently available with 20% discount at puch.at

The Diesels have a different tail end to the petrol models.
Dale at Haflingertechnik or Greg at Shropshire Gunbus are your best ports of call in the UK.

Watch out for the hole pattern. The 4 bolts on the top are 85 x 45 mm, which allows the use of the revolving shackle designed for Landrover Defenders ( search for Bearmach BA 2682)
The bottom section is 83 x 56 mm which is the standard for 4 hole towing balls.

Re: Towing
If you want to join the agricultural community, keep the kit for ploughing :-)
this is the structure I use for towing

The towball is bolted to the baseplate with 4 M12 bolts.
On that pic I have replaced the welded on ring with a revolving shackle.

Re: Towing
a flat 12 mm plate of steel with the corresponding 12 mm holes does it nicely..

Re: torquing carb to manifold
I use nuts from a tuning shop in Germany.
They offer M8 nuts for 10 mm spanners.

This allows me to torque the carbs to 20 Nm

Re: Fuel pump replacement.
I replaced my mechanical pump with an electrical. Saves you the cranking at cold start.
