mm turning 21 was good, my insurance premium has dropped by $600 for my next year :) but my agreed value has dropped $2k :)

it wouldn't be cause you turned 21 that your insurance dropped its because the agreed value has dropped

.7

you generally wouldnt need to go any lower

Damo - that logic test, 1 of the questions i didnt like was #5

Answer 5.

a) Where there is poverty there is crime.

b) There is crime in Camberwell.

- Therefore there must be poverty in Camberwell.

Invalid. There may be crime where there is poverty, but it does not necessarily follow that wherever crime is there is poverty. There is plenty of crime occurring in wealthier circles.

where there is poverty there is crime is a truth statement its not guessing

there is crime in camberwell is again a truth statement

so how can it be invalid where not discussing how wealthy camberwell is just stating there is crime there

sweet..can they go lower due splitfires?

Ideally want a higher gap not a lower. I higher gap gives a better ignition to the fuel but it also is weaker spark which makes it susceptible to being "blown out" by the intake charge.

Anyhow the accepted gap is 0.8mm if you have split fires then you should be able to run a bigger gap but it'll be trial and error to find out how big and I wouldn't go over 1>1.1mm anyway.

hmmm.... ok i think there at .8 atm... thats wat they are from the box?

i can just feel the car hold back constantly then be ok the hold back due to missing...

ill open them up more... trial and error i guess..

what is the last number on the part number? If it had some thing like BKPR6ES-8 then it is 0.8 but if it was -11 or didn't have a number at the end then it's 1.1mm

If you are having spark problem then opening them up won't help you need to close them up, but if you have split fires then you shouldn't be having spark problems. you will know if they are breaking down because it'll sound like it not running on all cylinders where as you are saying it's feeling like it's being held back which isn't spark. It's probably got more to do with ignition timing.

Surely dropping my agreed value from 23,900 to 21,850 wont bring my insurance premium from 2098 p/a to 1500 p/a. if thats the case, ill set agreed value at 18k and pay no insurance.

Rhys, yep just car, got the info from my policy renewal letter, expires early Feb.

    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
