Does anyone know which crimping tool has the right profile for the Furukawa terminals as used on the MOSFET Reg/Rect upgrade on the AT ?

Furukawa 090

I believe they are molexish so most crimpers could be used to suit the terminal size

Thx chaps - Is there anywhere in the UK where u can get the crimping tool?

You might find a local tool supplier, they are quite common.

That's an example, if you are doing a lot get a good one, if its a one off try to borrow one perhaps.

Be cautious of Amazon and eBay.

Crimping is the best way of joining wire to connectors I reckon.

Thanks for that Andy. I've got a few wiring jobs lined up for the near future, so gonna get a decent crimper.
Fitting the Mosfet Reg/Rect recently I had to use a long nosed pliers - got the job done but not as neatly
as if I had the proper crimp tool.
