    Slooooow Wipers

    I would say this is perhaps a fairly rare. I was a shop mechanic and I worked on just about every vehicle except exotic cars.

    Pic request: rocker panel/wheel arch shape

    You know it's very possible if someone had a low mileage fj60 and have a company with a laser scanner that would scan the entire wheel well section.

    1991 toyota surf alternator not charging help!

    Yeah if the regulator is not working properly you have to have a rotating current coming out of the if I can recall the Armature and that magnetic field has to cut across the field coils of the stator.

    Sounds like the regulator is shot. Do you have a voltmeter? Measure the alternator output at seven hundred RPMs, 900 RPMs, a thousand RPMs., 1500 RPMs tell us what the voltages. Also check your return wire that goes on the voltage regulator I think that's called B+ I can't be sure but as minimum...
