On cold starts my bendix disengages early after a few engine rotations and free wheels. On the 2nd start attempt the car fires right up. It happens 100% of the time and can't figure out what's going on. I replaced the spring, no change. I even replaced the entire bendix assy from an original...

I'm looking to get a Briggs body number plate with my SN stamped. Does anyone offer well made repos? I saw some older posts to contact larry-gwyn@consolidated.net however have not received a response in weeks.

I'm having a bit of a head-scratcher moment with my generator. With the 3rd brush set all the way up my ammeter is pegged and reading close to 20A. This is with no lights or any external accessories turned on. Questioning the accuracy of the analog gauge, I took out my digital clamp style amp...

Question on front spindle changes amongst the years. I ordered a set of nuts (A1193) and washers to replace my worn parts. Passenger side fit fine however the driver's side spindle was undersized. So much so that the nut went right thru the threaded spindle. Was there a model year change? My OCD...

Hi all, long time listener first time caller. I recently picked up a 30' blindback 4-door. Before I go for my first drive there's some maintenance items I need to take care of. Not on my to-do list was my door handle! I went to open the door this morning and found myself with a handle in my...
