Re: Setting Timing

Once you have the engine running you can always adjust the timing by turning the distributor a little bit. Just remember that if you make it too lean and too far advanced, you run the risk of burning a hole in the top of the pistons. You could always see if you can find a tool like the "Colourtune ...

Re: Pay monthy for your car's options??

Heated seat subscription circumvented by new wires from the fusebox to a switch and direct the headed seats wiring, turn on an off when you want. if you want a little bit more control, variable resistor in the circuit to adjust heat level.

Re: 1972 Steyr Puch Haflinger 500

If you have managed to get a set, then get them copied - a metal fabrication shop is likely to charge you less then what you are going to pay for a set of "original" doors if you can find another set. They have become very rare.

Good lick.

You can use a wire loop to do the same job. Pull the brake spring up to the point where you can use a screwdrive to ...

Re: Not much safety in a Haflinger

I think I am going to look into putting a heavier duty roll bar on mine and 4 point seat belts. Although it has four seats I have yet to take any one else in the back two seats - partly because they arn't finished, but they are not finished because I don't have a reason to carry people in them!
