And old post I know, but still in theme.... Three faults with the Piazza fuselink wiring: 1. fuselinks suspended "in air" and prone to bad connection - should be upgraded to a panel or battery mounted fuse(link) block; preferably with newer plastic fuselinks (20A, 30A, 40A ....100A etc). T...

I think so - someone wanted a cover (C1?) but converted another. Can't find the post/topic/forum, but I have the emails. PM me of you want. Otherwise it was a post on OzGem, HoldGem etc earlier than 27Sept08. Addendum : It was bad 44u in urgent wtb timing cover "wtb timing cover"

I should have both, but you will have to remove & refit the springs when done.
PM me for contact details (Greensborough).

Ha! No problems. I just couldn't resist the opportunity to swipe those Poms! And compliment a Scot in the process! Let's face it, historically you and I are brothers. Maybe not arm in arm, but certainly (brothers) In Arms! Best thing about being an Aussie - we're so insecure we'll take a swipe at an...

... you always tell an australian... but you can't tell him much... Frustrating isn't it? It's partly an accent problem. And maybe too that we are more visually stimulated than people in GB - probably due to our environment. Besides, that Trumpy power plant reminded me of the Kum&SuckMes - funn...

Stick to the Marque!
Isuzu 4200R V8, or the Hummer turbo diesel (7.6L?).

Normally no competition - a bluddy Trumpy, NO WAY! But even I crawled out of my Isuzu to see what a particular horny bike was - a damn Trumpy! Some mates of mine (a couple) have filled their stable - he has the road tourer, and she has the sporty. (I can't remember the models - I'm trying to fein wh...

Thanks 15uzu for BUMPing. As I read, I thought of MU, but you got it. I'm not sure of the earlier Nero (black) as the I'm fairly sure the Bellel and 117 both came in black. And these were both popular with Japanese VIPs, ambassadors etc (who usually drove black). If I recall right, Japanese visitors...

Yeah! Thanks buddy for getting me in to Piazzas - I was happy with my '60s vintage Isuzus. I ended up getting a Jackeroo instead! (Though the Piazza is what got me the Jackeroo, and into these Forums etc. And it got LSDs for my 1965 Wasp ute, and a dash, and upgraded alternator. Tonight I've been de...

I'd agree with the wiring or charging fault. Whilst fuel & temp gauges go through a voltage regulator, the oil pressure gauge doesn't. [This Volt Reg is mounted behind the gauges. Output is typically 8V but it's usually mechanical/bi-metal and switches between 0 & 12V to give an 8V average.]...

All of my 8(?) wheels have the centres, but just "plain" - there is no "two people" Isuzu logo.

Onya Bob! I told that 'coupe skumbag where to go! Yeah! You know I want a manual Piazza but have 2 autos instead. And I want manual Piazza diffs (LSD) to avoid transplanting the 3.9 crown and pinion onto Jackeroo & Rodeo LSDs for non-Gemini Isuzu passenger cars. (But any Piazza diff for the 3.9 ...

Dem's fighting words 'Coupe - jest watchit! I'm not saying I disagree with you, just that thems is fighting words. (Oh sht! Maybe we can back each other up?!)
