      Don't know the circuits, but those look to be 5 amp color fuses. The amperage value is stamped on the end, like these.
    • kzj70
      Could anyone tell me what circuits these fuses are on and what Amp please? I can’t find any other fuses and am trying to trace why my glow plugs are not getting power. These are on the main loom from the battery positive. BJ42 24V 1980 Thank you.

      Because I don’t believe synthetic is the right oil to put in an old engine. The handbook has a brad spread of grades so trying to work out the best to use, I think for UK climate 10W 40 is the best spread. I have now found a few options. I have...

      Oh is that where those originate from! Can’t say I like them but they have been well installed so will have to stay. I’m told the car originated in The Netherlands and it certainly has an European VIN number (with the extra 9 in the number). I...

      @duncanrm thanks, ir does look like they dis a decent job. Every seal etc is new. There is a fair bit of bog between those panels and the paint and the paint isn’t a perfect job, konda matt but I like it and it’s going to be my daily...

      My engine was very clean when I took the oil pan off. So no worries.

      After seven months of searching all over the world I found a BJ42 that fitted my budget and wasn’t rotten in Lithuania back in May. Today it finally arrived here in the UK. 1980 BJ42, has been fully restored about 7yrs ago. There are going to be...

      @jgranthevagrant No issues at all. I have two 100Ah LiFePo Renogy batteries. 270W of solar on the roof and DC-DC works fine from OE alternator. I ran oversized cabling to accommodate any loss over the distance from engine bay to just behind B...

      Wow. That is extremely well done. Kudos to you.

      Thank you. The lower panel on the ‘kitchen’ cabinet pulls out about an inch as a support for the bed frame. Oh and in case you wonder I didn’t put a fixed sink in but fitted a marine ‘deck shower’ which gives me hot and cold water inside or...
