Re: Multiple choice poll - vehicle engine type
Avoiding getting bogged down in the eco issue has become impossible and despite the huge strength of feeling that it raises, the vested interests have managed to squash or hide many arguments that involve their area of interest. Is it any wonder the world is split over this, there are vast sums of m...

Re: Voltage regulator help
I look at the electronic "upgrades" for regulators ignition and fuel pumps and wonder why? Old electro mechanicals need to be pampered in their old age but they still perform and often if they cause trouble, they are a roadside fix, but when an electronic upgrade drops out that's it, apart...
