Re brendon m's comment on cu vs al, don't remember much from my '68 army apprenticeship but I do remember that the figure being taught then was 62%. Still learning from this forum for my third conversion.thanks.

Survey monkey is a commercial firm. They also conducted a survey for an over 55,s village near our house. It was skewed positively whereas my own personto person contact survey in the neighbourhood indicated strong opposition. The information you volunteer can be slanted for a preferred result.

Does a Suzuki Carry count.? Just sold mine to a mechanic from the central coast and ohmboy also has one.

So the good part is that it almost rules out dodgy backyard repairers.

Good news from Piman. Some 15 years ago a friend bought an AU Falcon privately in Sydney. Ad said it was "one owner, good condition, low K's bla blah." He didn't use the old Revcheck. It turned out to be a good car longterm, but he was never really able to find any joy in owning it after learning of...

Interesting point from T1 terry about the auxiliary FLA only being charged to 13.2v causing sulphation.Surely a small inverter could remove this issue? Ah, but then the point was raised about 12v failure requiring a regular service visit. Onselling at it's best. " DO YA WANT FRIES(12v battery) WITH ...

In my Suzuki carry I fitted a button siren tone for use in carparks. It annoyed the heck out of me but I saw pedestrians look at the van and still continue on their way. As drivers, we still have a duty of care, even to those belonging to the Order of the Perpetually Mesmerised by Technology. As pre...

My question is : Do I qualify to post such an ad? I am not a financial member but I would think I have the thirty posts. Just a short yea or nay will suffice before I fill out the ad format for my Carry.

He,s really a Nigerian prince

Hi, after a lot of detective work in the settings I discovered one that requires IP verification for each logon. The box was ticked so I unticked and hey presto! problem solved. I am not smart enough to have set that in the first place so go figure?

Hi; With regard to the DIY EV debacle, I notice that several contributors to this forum have posted, all with negative comments. Some ten days ago I posted giving support, moral and financial to starting another independent forum to distance ourselves from the VB raiders. In the past I have had issu...

Not wanting to divert this thread, but I have a battery related query. On DIY EV Kiwi Duncan said that he was able to import Volt batteries from USA . As I am moving into the 21st century and soon re-cycling my Pb, I would appreciate any experiences, good or bad, with suppliers and any recommendatio...

And the 3 adults are still forward of the rear axle ( unless you are sneaking them into an old style drive- in movie lot and they are shoehorned into the boot)

Hi again; Still banging on about weight distribution:3.2 Brakes and Steering Version 2.0 - 1 January 2011 Page 20/29 / "Because mass distribution is an important factor in maintaining good handling and braking characteristics of a vehicle, it must be considered carefully in the design of a conversio...

Correction, prius

NCOP LAN 2011 Version2.0-1 "Mass distribution should be as low and CENTRALLY located as possible in the vehicle to assist with vehicle stability". In the Govspeak dialect MAY= we don't really care; SHOULD=we would like you to do this but it's up to you; MUST=MUST. :D Check for later versions of NCOP.

Hi, just a thought that one of the regulations is that as little weight as possible be placed behind the rear axle line to avoid spinout . With lead that is a lot of leverage in a corner.

Good point. Different user names and passwords, but maybe they are trying to get me to use all my passwords.
