    F engine starter improvement

    OK, I'm glad I asked! Grounds should all be intact, but I will check when I'm in there. (Is that the price from the dealer? I wonder how much my dealer will bump it, sigh.)

    F engine starter improvement

    My 7/69 FJ40 has the original F, and with it the original starter "issues" - it randomly will just "click" but not engage. It will always engage eventually - or at least, has always done so far - but I'd like a better answer. I have had the starter out and rebuilt it, polished the contacts, all...

    Solid-state Replacement for Mech. Voltage regulator

    Did you even look at the Wagner catalog? I'm guessing W095-10 (green plug).

    Solid-state Replacement for Mech. Voltage regulator

    If you look further up in the thread (back a page, now) you'll find the URL for Wagner; order direct from them by emailing the contact us address. The mechanical regulator can be adjusted, but I have always found the process to be very fiddly. I think 14.5 at the battery is a touch high, but...

    Solid-state Replacement for Mech. Voltage regulator

    It's mounted on the firewall below the master cylinders. Metal box with three wires going to it. The W095-03 should work great in your truck.

    Solid-state Replacement for Mech. Voltage regulator

    I finally installed the W095-03 in my 7/69 this morning. The existing harness connectors fit perfectly. No surprises, no drama, and best of all, no more overcharging! The highest reading I saw on the voltmeter was 14.0, 13.5 is more typical ... way better than the swings up to 15.3 or more that...

    The markings are the same between the new and old!

    Solid-state Replacement for Mech. Voltage regulator

    I sent a note to Wagner, asking for details about the W095-04, thinking that I would be able to mount it up where my mechanical unit is and change out the connector. The president (!) sent me a reply, and informed me that the photo of the W095-03 is wrong - they are now shipping a solid-state...

    Solid-state Replacement for Mech. Voltage regulator

    It's not one of the ones in http://www.wagneralt.com/catalog/books/W2008-09.pdf, on page 23/46? There are a couple there with 6-wire rectangular connectors.

    Solid-state Replacement for Mech. Voltage regulator

    OK ... my local suppliers are all failing me. Can someone here tell me where I might acquire one of the Transpo IN554 regulators or the Wagner equivalent? My local starter shop, which has always been good at this before, has come up dry - and the NAPA stores around me have gotten stupid and...

    Bellview winch bumper?

    After many months of scratching my head about it, I finally have the lights rewired. Why is that in the bumper thread? Because half the battle was adding the auxiliaries ... which go with the bumper. Very old school - driving beam on the driver's side, fog beam on the passenger side! Today was...

    Solid-state Replacement for Mech. Voltage regulator

    Could someone with a '73-'76 or so - with the 3-terminal connector that suits the IN554 regulator - decode which terminal is which lead? I'm quite tempted to convert my 7/69 with spade lugs and maybe one of the three-terminal housings from http://www.vintageconnections.com ...

    Solid-state Replacement for Mech. Voltage regulator

    Thanks coolerman. The W095-04 looks just like the Transpo IN554. Given the photos, I'd say that they're all solid state *except* for the W095-03 that fits your truck (and mine), which is likely mechanical.

    Solid-state Replacement for Mech. Voltage regulator

    OK, I'm on the hunt again. My alternator is sometimes putting out over 15V, and I have several things in the truck that are unhappy about it. I pulled the mechanical regulator and it *seems* to be putting out about 13.8V, in my simple test: I hooked up a variable PS to the IG and Gnd and...

    replacement fuel pump which do you recommend?

    I called a bunch of people looking for a rebuild kit and came up empty, so I bought a Kyosan pump from JTO. Worked great. I finally took my old pump apart and found a big crack in the diaphragm - everything else was in great shape. It would sure be nice if someone was selling rebuild kits ...

    replacement fuel pump which do you recommend?

    For what it's worth - I just installed the Kyosan pump that JT Outfitters is (was?) selling for $49. The only thing wrong is that their website says there's not a gasket included ... and there were two in the box! I had to swap fittings because mine have been modified to use rubber hose with...
