Re: Electric steering for 710/712s

the convertr will top up the battery which can deliver juice when needed.....

Re: Brake Lights

So, I figured that the new one would only require the installation of the 2 main wires coming from under the dash. I installed it, solved my leak I have been battling, but now don't have brake lights. I capped the 2 extra wires and figured I would be fine. John i cannot determine what colour you ca...

Re: Austrian spec shift linkage

George The Austrian Pinzgauers have been refurbished in the 90-ies. The different tail lights, the H4 headlights, and the 120 km/h are visible indications of that program. The changed gearstick also results from it. If you want to upgrade a Swiss Pinz you will need to compare the parts from your Swi...

Re: Are VDO gas gauges made by Lucas?

Feedback from the installation: I swapped the gauge and the sender, and the reading still showed zero: Measured resistance of 64 Ohms at sender as well as at the connector to s-pin on meter. Had 24 volts on + input against ground connector I got desperate...and left. Did some math to determine a 20 ...

A good way to research the history of any Steyr Puch vehicle is to obtain a copy of the "Wagenstammkarte", kind of the order and manufacturing log.

Re: Are VDO gas gauges made by Lucas?

My Pinz suffered from this random level disease since I had it. Now I took out the tubular sensor and the instrument and went to the local VDO representatrive to have them checked as a system. Got the reply that checking and fixing is more expensive than a new set, so I went home with sensor 224-011...

Re: Fuses for early production ('71) K

mockingbird812 at that point it was easy http://up.picr.de/24044060pz.jpg I had to rewire the dash, so I took it out anyway. I guess that is the best approach.
