wiring
Has anybody attempted to rewire an fe fc according to workshop manual, and if so how did they go with it?
A wiring diagram from the manual is all you will need, its VERY simple, just break it up into individual circuits instead of looking at it as a whole complicated thing.
I would strongly recommend that you removed the battery and used a current limted 12 volt supply instead, a 12 volt battery charger is ideal. This way you can make mistakes and not fry the wiring.
Virgin Blue have cheap return flights to Melbourne at the moment, add a cab fare, a case of VB, and I'll fix it for you. Alternately, Supercheap have a special on fire extingishers, your choice ;-)
front end
What would be the best thing to paint a front end with?
and what is the best way to remove the hr mounts, as it will have a grey in it
Paint it with a POR15 - it will last and look great.
Remove the mounts with a grinder.....
engine
Has anybody used a type of paint on their grey motor that would be as close to original as possible, and was it enamel, or 2pak.
Use a 2 pack mix, there is a very helpful thread on this topic, just do a search and you will find it easy enough.
Cheers,
Craig.
