  1. Unless you are using more than 55W lights you shouldn't see very much indication on the ammeter. You might want to check your alternator brushes. I use 55W bulbs for fog lamps, have a newly rebuilt alternator and don't see but a very slight rise in current drain on the ammeter (less than 1/32 inch movement) at idle.

  3. Boosters are available AT MOST PARTS STORES for about $80.
  4. Try getting a schematic so you can trace it. Change the flasher if you haven't already. Get the schematic somewhere in this forum....do a search. I don't know if the CD sold here has it. Or buy a cheap manual..none of them are very good but may help.
  5. MAKE SURE YOUR HAZARD FLASHER SWITCH IS ALL THE WAY OFF!!!! TURN IT ON AND OFF A FEW TIMES THEN CHECK YOUR SIGNALS. These switches can hang up in between on and off. If it is not completely off the signals will not work. The power to the signals goes through the hazard switch.

  7. I have experienced the same problem. I had rebuilt my master cylinder and replaced my vacuum booster at the same time. After driving for a short distance (using brakes 3-4 times) they would lock up. Had to tow it home 3 times. I found that the master cylinders are different as are the boosters. (check my gallery for one of the differences) (master courtesy of Carl Beck) Don't worry Carl, I'll return it soon. I had to jury rig the booster to work properly (wrong size threaded shaft out of the booster connecting to the pedal) which I shall return and the plunger end going from booster to MC can be different (length and/or diameter). I corrected this problem by adjusting the plunger end about 3 times (trial and error) until it didn't lock up anmore. Try adjusting the booster rod (between MC and booster) if the other suggestions don't work. PS the 71 MC is different from 72-75 and costs 3 times more. I must like "three" today. Sorry about that.

  14. I would think that what you have should be kept original because it has a good start already. It's a rare find to get one still stock with new stuff (not opened). IMHO:cross-eye

    I just included the UK with Europe because of goeographical size. The same goes for Australia...even though South Australia covers the Discovery Bay area I meant to include it with the Victoria area because of not many large cities in the south west, vs. the city of Perth in the West. Sorry ...Australia is hard to break up by populated areas. Bill:dead:

    I would like to see this pole revived...out of almost 5000 members, we have a weak showing.

  18. I would think this area would be excellent for marine operations. There are so many damn boats here at times it's disgusting..can't get the boat in the water due to lack of parking at the boat ramps. Good luck with the job hunt and let me know if you need anything from this area, I may be able to send to you. If you want to hunt here personally...I've got room. Bill
