    Swapping Generator for Alternator on '72 bus

    Hi, Following my post about my generator warning light I followed Speedy Jim's advice on how to test a generator with a voltmeter and found that mine is not putting out anything.

    Solid sliding sunroof mystery....

    Spoke to Dan at RCCI Imports and he can get me the metal roof for about £150, unfortunately I don't have some of the rails (such as the whole front section) and the cables and winder mechanism are long gone.

Mine have been partially filled in and the whole thing has been a bit bodged/messd up so it would probably need a fair bit of refurbing. Definitely think I'll try and revert back to this though, really like the idea of that with...

    Generator warning light and flat battery....

    My 1972 bay camper has had the generator light on and flattened the battery, can anyone point me in the direction of some step by step advice on how to find out what is wrong and fix it? I'm no mechanic by anyone's standards but I'm keen to give it a go! Any help/advice much appreciated. Jonny

    Solid sliding sunroof mystery....

    Can anyone help me unravel the following: My 1972 crossover bay has a very shoddy custom bodge pop top and being a paddleboarder I was thinking of reverting to the tin top look and putting a rack on.
