If you can get it started and drive it, take it to an automotive battery/alternator shop. In the Portland OR area, I use Battery X-change (NFI). They will test the alternator and battery in your car

I have never dealt with this myself, but I would say if you can get crank end play back into spec with some standard or plus sized thrust washers, then your crank and block are OK. If installing the

As with all things, there are tradeoffs. A two pack enamel is simple, original, and can be buffed out easily if there is a scratch. The base/clear gives a deeper shine, is more durable in the sense

That is correct. Triumph increased the thickness of the head, thereby increasing the volume of the combustion chamber. They also increased the length of the push rod to maintain the rocker arm geome

With the car on jack stands, I would not expect a drop in RPMs, as there is no load on the rear wheels. Instead, I would expect the rear wheels to speed up. With the wheels off the ground, I would l

You are, of course, absolutely correct on that point. I was referring to the notion that using anything other than an enamel paint is technically incorrect, as the factory used a two pack enamel, wi

I cannot categorically say that *all* DOT 5 is purple. What I can say is that all DOT I have *personally* seen is purple. No, they cannot be mixed. As I understand it that is why DOT 5 is purple, to

Found this on the web. It implies that DOT 5.1 is NOT silicone based like DOT 5, and is therefore not compatible. Once again, mixing a teaspoon of each type will tell you if they are compatible or n

My experience has been that a thin smear of Hylomar over the mating surfaces takes care of the leak issue. As for the stripping the threads, there is no doubt that steel is superior to aluminum. My
