Re: uprated brush pack for alternator?
Just a thought Em, (and I really don't know a lot about it) does your solar charger have a reverse discharge protection to prevent it loosing battery charge at night. The thought that darkness will suck power out of your batteries is an odd one but I have read about setups that seem to include them ...

Re: horn earth wire
From memory the brown wire pushes on to a spade on the upper section of the steering wheel column then disappears down to the horn. I cant remember which route it takes though.

Re: Sump Plug Stuck
You could use a suction pump to remove the oil and never touch the sump. possible sludge build up. but give it a good run before you drain to get all the particles in suspension and I guess it should be OK.

Re: Torque wrenches reviews
Went for a teng one as I was over a barrel and needed one quick. It looks the part, and didn't snap the heads off which after the week I've had was well worth the extra! How do they get calibrated by the way? Is there any way to do it at home without a reference wrench?
