Interesting thread, although nothing seemed to happen from it. One point that was raised at the end was the fail-safes which are built into modern cars as a protective measure against the throttle being stuck open. While that is true and probably essential for an automatic vehicle, I would...

I did wonder, but couldn't think of anything that would do that action. A quick search I found this: https://uk.rs-online.com/web/p/potentiometers/8427181/ Not quite what you were referring to though..

That would be fantastic to have something that we can all contribute to with ideas and knowledge to have a working solution. :mrgreen: I'm guessing we could use any potentiometer? I was wondering where would be the best placement on the pedal as usually in modern cars, the pedal is mounted...

Fantastic idea! I have yet to get into Pi's / Ardunios, but i have a few more ideas for them. I certainly don't have the spare time to mock anything up right now, but just for reference do you know how to code? Will do! Might be a while before I have the spare time though. Yes, in theory...

So, I had an issue with my daily recently where I had to take the pedal apart and clean the contacts of the potentiometer, which got me thinking. :? Anyone who has a RHD bus knows how rubbish the front linkage is with the cable winding from the bottom of the pedal, around the back of the...

Excellent work. :mrgreen:

I did a bit more research and it appears that black connector is supposed to be a '67 only connector, however it has been found in other years, both in 6 and 12v. https://www.thesamba.com/vw/forum/viewtopic.php?t=701894&start=0 It looks like the ones I have there are both 12v 30A, but the...

Now that's interesting! Might explain why my mate's old 12v Beetle never charged properly :lol: It was his Dynamo and gave it to me when he had a clearout.

:lol: To be more precise, I am asking why one has the black plastic connector, what is special about it, was it fitted to a certain type of engine / VW? :)

I am about to sell some Dynamos I have had on my shelf for a while but noticed that one has different connectors compared to the other and wondered what it was from / for? Essentially, it looks like it still has the two posts, but there is no obvious place for the 'Earth' which is usually...

PM sent. :shadey:

Sorry for the slow reply! Are you located in Swindon? :mrgreen:

A few questions for you: How does this fix to the gutter? Is it any particular brand? Does it include the side cover? Does it include the main front support poles and tie-downs? Thanks. :shadey:

Hey! Keep the pictures coming :party0021:

Another duplicate order: :roll: £3.75 Posted

Hope it is an easy repair :x I didn't think the Go Karts worked where they were. We walked passed that Go Kart inflatable area and it was covering about 3/4 of the road. We then walked down the pier and ate some food etc. When we walked back the Go Karts had covered the whole road of that...

Thanks. Yep, I was fairly surprised. Plus full of chips and ice cream... :party0051:

We spontaneously went to Brighton Breeze for a couple of hours, I thought I would share pictures for people who could not go. I thought there was some great stuff there, although it seemed quieter than the last time we went which was 7/8 years ago!

Great, PM Sent. :shadey:

Up! :Poke:
