Details to come soon, but my cruiser is coming up for sale!

I recently discovered that my truck won't actually engage 4x4 due to the front left auto hub. I am in need of the part in the photo ( if anybody knows what it is called or a part number would be good ). It is for a 1990, manual gearbox, 27 spline Thanks ! Wade - 028 8500 2053 I think I still have ...

I have some surplus items that I thought I would offer here first before advertising elsewhere. Sanden air con pump SD509 - great for a air compressor conversion http://i195.photobucket.com/albums/z218/kiwi_pete/Onboard%20Air/20130718_180538_zps73a3a4bd.jpg Sanden air con pump SD7B10 - as above but ...

I'm liking this new layout too, will be trying it out on the tablet and phone later today.

Hi guys.
What's the go with jump starting a VX 80 series dual battery cruiser?
I went to start mine today and the batteries were as flat as. She has been parked up for just over a week.

I used 2 spare batteries and 2 sets of leads but is there an easier way?

Hi all, I am after a cheap CB radio please.
It has to have a PA output as well.

Not looking at anything too flash.

Mates after some Keen on seat belts aswell Anywhere in nz will pay for shipping. Thanks I have just what you are looking for. I took the ones out of my cruiser for a WOF as they were incorrectly fitted, not factory fitted. The seats are in great condition and are complete with all hardware ...

Please be mindful of these areas and obey the signs or we will find more areas will be closed off to us!

Duh! Silly me

At the end of the exhaust manifold cover nearest the firewall.



See here in this picture where the big brass bung is.

Nice work.

Cheers guys. I will try my electronic relay first and if that fails, then I'll look at the ciggy feed etc.

Ciggy lighter in cabin

Maybe or i may use an mini electronic relay i have to run the big relay. Well be naff alk current draw and shouldnt upset the charging system.

Well it seems using the charge fuse was not the way to go. Driving to work i noticed the instrument lights for the turbo and the cam belt were glowing evr so slightly. I unpluged the feed wire fron the charge fuse to the relay and these lights went out. I am now thinking I may have to either put a ...

It is all sorted and wired up.
I tapped onto the charge fuse under the fuse box. What a mission it was to get to it.
No pictures yet sorry.
The fridge operates from the truck now as it should.

Seems I do not have this fuse box between the air cleaner and battery.
The 24Valve models must be different so I will have to look further into the charge fuse idea.


Yes I had a poke around this plug too with my voltage meter but could not find what I was looking for either.

Or you could get a VSR

Yes I may have to look further into the charge fuse.
A VSR is of no use for running the caravan fridge whilst in transit I'm afraid.

It's activating a relay, hardly high drain.

I do not have a fuse box on the drivers side that I can see, but there is one on the passenger side, but no ignition wire in there.
Here is a pic of said box.

Big wrote:what exactly are you trying to do? as I have the fsm but its a stab in the dark to help you..

I need the ignition wire to operate a relay or another wire that comes alive only when the engine is running.
This relay then powers a 12V feed to the caravan to keep the fridge running when in transit.

Cheers for the input guys, I have some work to do tomorrow.

Hi all. I am looking for a 12V ignition feed in the engine bay of my 80 series diesel truck. It is only required for energising a relay but I do not want to go through the firewall if I can avoid it. Has any one an idea where one is? PS. I have had a short poke around with a multimeter but had no ...

I have one that i was going to put on my terrano if anyone wants it?

Im on holiday and will look up my wiring diagrams when i get home.

Is anyone using this cam?
