I'm working blind here. The selector you want is ".post-content". You can use your browser search feature to locate this (usually Ctrl+F).

This is where the font size is set but it also affects other areas. Raise the value a little and see what you think. You can always reset this, if you don't like it.
th, .th, /* table header font */
.announcement-box, .post-content, .forum-box td, .forumtitle h3, textarea, input.text
{font-size: 1.2em;}


If you cannot get the above to work for you, find this part lower down.
.post-content {
background-color: #FFFFE8;
padding: 5px;
}


You can just add a line to this, like so:
.post-content {
background-color: #FFFFE8;
padding: 5px;
font-size: 1.2em;
}

That may be sufficient or you can tweak it a little.

I do however encourage people with reading difficulties to adjust their settings rather than adjust a site. Not everyone has this difficulty and it may put others off, if the site has enormous text. This is very easy to do by using the Ctrl key in conjunction with the plus, minus and zero keys to: enlarge, reduce and reset respectively.
