Prototype 2 at Hanging rock.

Last thing I will say on this is when I spoke to this guy when he was trying to sell the car I told him he was a fraud etc etc. Before I knew it he was trying to sue me etc which was quite funny. Anyway glad the truth has come out and the matter is finished. (That was me that wrote the posts by fxfj...

Checking a generator

Hi all
Is there anyway to bench test a generator to see if it is any good. I tried it on a bench with a multimeter, but dont really know what I’m looking for.
Thanks

Re: Piston size

Ok thanks. This is the original engine out of my FJ. Just wondering if I should get it rebored or re-ring it.

Ive had the car 35 years and I have never rebored the motor so I would not be surprised if it is only 1thou

Re: Clay's Fabulous Big Exciting Kooky adventure

Going by that pic, I would be more worried that you have ran out of fuel looking at the gauge... V good P When I was a lad a mate had an EH wagon used to jump out of top. This was the remedy. 200km later, no issues. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20210630/cd4f8d54508ad24be1612084f043c4f9.jpg FB ut...

I am also afte...
