the easiest way to tell is to have the motor running and take the battery earth off the post. if the engine stops or has any complaints then the alternator is busted.

the only thing you will harm by driving with no alternator charge is the battery, as the engine and chassis electrics will be ...

Remove the front one. You'll normally have to unbolt one shackle to do it if it's an 89, but it's no biggy.

my suggestion would be WD40 right into the back of the door switch. its likely getting stuck so that it doesnt fully engage, thus causing a circuit and making the light activate.

the early version on the 4agze was AFM (in the AW11) and some scarce examples in AE92. AE92 mostly was MAP and all AE101 gze's were MAP.

you can run the AFM on the suction side of the SC12 if you run a bypass valve (4agze had these standard) which recirculates the air back to the intake post AFM ...

I think the entire point kitika bought this up was so he could spend the money on one really good set of tyres and rims. And have them do both 4wds. Its a good idea and i would do tha same.

I think the reason the 6stud conversion is also a 50mm wheel spacer. Is so that your original studs dont ...

I don't want to sound negative, and Adsport, if it does the job for you all the better, but I'm not sure this is the best radiator for the job.

Yes, it's vastly thick, and it is cross flow, but there's no way the way that radiator is mounted is ideal. It's going to see masses of vibration in that ...

there will be some wiring going to a round box on the side of the carby, thats the auto choke. inside there is a heater element that uncoils as it expands while voltage passes through it when your ignition is turned on. this in turn rotates the rod that the choke plate is fixed to.
