I copied a puff piece article from Automotive Industries magazine from April, 1950 entitled "Willys introduces F-head engine". It says:
I agree, but even shorted, the condenser would act like the points were closed. If this is a three wire alternator, then the voltage regulator...
It does seem that something is wrong. These gauges aren't precision pieces of equipment, but you would expect the Autometer gauge to read about...
Having accurate tools is always good, but an early CJ5 is not a precision piece of equipment. I have a ratchet, click type, torque wrench which I...
You don't have to polarize an alternator. Generators need the core to be properly magnetized to start, but alternators use the current in the...
If you loosen the other bearing caps, you probably will want to take the timing gear/chain cover off first so that the crank shaft dropping down...
I have replaced the rear main seal in a couple of F-heads. If you are talking about the neoprene seal rather than the rope seal, I take off the...
The driver door on my hardtop covers the gas cap, so when the doors are closed and locked, the gas cap is inaccessible. I think it is a Koenig...
[ Be careful Howard. I've heard you can go blind from that.
I removed and reinstalled a T-90 and transfer case once by myself without a transmission jack. I would highly recommend using the transmission jack.
If the ammeter you have now is like most automotive ones, then as others have said it carries the full current from the battery (except starting...
Here's a couple of pictures of mine -- maybe I should have cleaned it up first:oops: Kevin
I can't find the recommended torque in my FSM for the nut that goes on the front of the crankshaft of my f-head and I couldn't find it with a...
Have you checked the valve adjustment? If they were way off running for 30 seconds could be enough to cause them to stop closing. I am assuming...
It looks to me that you have the same amount of room that I had. As I have mentioned before, I used 5/8 inch nuts on 3/16 inch line. I got them...
If I understand correctly, you don't have lights or wipers now. If that is true, then with a good battery, it almost has to be a bad connection....
Mine is also the same dimension. JZ, I solved the hydraulic line clearance problem by using nuts on the 3/16 inch tubing that fit directly into...
1 1/8 inch works on mine. But I usually use my metric Crescent wrench instead. Kevin
I have no idea if this helps, but GM issued recall bulletin No. 96067A in 1997 with the title Linear EGR System Sticking Open/Closed. I think...
