Hi guys. The Tech Adviser got an email from some guy in the US asking about torque specs for the engine of his 1968 (1967?) j13 pickup.

Problem is, some of the parts he's asking about we don't have Down Under - maybe they build engines differently over there !

Can anyone tell me what a "wrist pin" is when it's at home ?

Thanks.

Score one for Evan, and all spelled correctly. AKA piston pin, and gudgeonpin
