    I have a 1:16 scale RC Tiger tank, but it is not for sale. So I do not need to put a pic here. I'm happy I have it, for it is not available any more. It is an over 25 year old Banday kit which I modified a little bit for RC some 24 years ago. Wolf

    Alts struggling in the cold?

    I like to add this, maybe some people do not like to hear / read this. It is about the live time of V-belts. I found out (the hard, expensive way) that the alt mounts as stock are not the very best for alinement. For the left alt I had to cut the mount and move it about 5 mm forward and change...

    fast idle solenoid

    You do not need the fast idle selenoid. The problem is not the selenoid, it is the shwich on the right side of the engine and its contacts. Wolf

    Help1 Need 6.2L starter bolts or dimensions..

    I do not understand your problems, it is a standard M12 bolt of a lenght I forgot (something about 160 mm), a mass production part here in Europe, quality 8.8. The 6.2 l Diesel is the first full metric engine ever designed in the US and you guys have to get used to the metric system which was...

    Change the relais, the controler to a less than 15 year old one and hope that you did not blow the glow plugs beforehand. Good luck! Wolf from Germany 16 years with a M1009

    M1008 voltage regulator

    The diode plate is a spare part for the alt, should be at least available at the dealership of GM or at autoparts, automotive parts or NAPA parts, if they still have these old parts in the program. Tecnically, the diode plate cuts down the alternating voltage of your altinator, which produces...

    Fuel tank stencil

    OK, guys, lets look a little bit back into history. In the 50's and 60's the stencil on the tanks was simply: DO NOT FILL ABOVE THIS LINE. In the mid 70 this stencil was added by the remark: ALLOW FOR EXPENSI0N. This was due to the change of the US-Army from a drafty Army to a voluntary Army...

    M1008 voltage regulator

    The regulators are mass production AC Delco parts and found in any GM used alts of that time. So it should be possible at the dealership to find the propper regulator.

    WHAT DID I BUY?..WHAT IS IT?..57mm?

    Hey, the scale measure looks more like 63.5 mm. 57 mm would be 2.244 inches. But I have no idea what gun that should be. From the calibre that sounds like a Navy gun. However, I can not find anything about that calibre in my books... Sorry. I'm limited. Wolf

    Alts struggling in the cold?

    The alts have a power output of max. 1.4 kW (1.9 hp). This is something. If the belt tension is low, they make noise. So check the tesion of your V-belts or better just replace them. Wolf
