Got a message from a mate that there is going to be 60 cops coming over from Victoria (great swine flu) this thursday for a 2 week blitz in Adelaide.

Donno what the blitz is on but I'm guessing it's going to be everything. Just a warning :blink:

Are they bringing over equipment/cars etc for 60 cops? Are those cars being driven over ... doubt SA has extra cars for 60 cops not employed by the SA Govt. 60 families missing their partners for 2 weeks. Who's paying them? Vic Govt going to pay 60 cops to work in SA?

I find it hard to believe :P

In any case, I have nothing to worry about.

it beats most comoodores on the street let me tell ya that! :blink:

Sv8's are really underestimated, less weight but same suspension and drive train as their SS brothers. I almost picked up an ex-police executive 2yrs back, stock looking exec with 6ltr ! :P

6ltr ay? must of been the ex-cop ones that had them. mines only gen3.... 6 spd. etc,.

only thing i dont like it doesnt have cruise or leather.. but the power makes up for it :blink:

I just drained 7.5K Km old Motul 8100 and it looked relatively good other than it's dark appearance, no sludge. Just replaced filter and put in some 10/40 300V chrono, didn't do a flush as I don't think it's necessary... yet :P

I'd rather the oil look dirty... at least then you know it's doing it's job.

Yeah last of the VZ exec cop packs, most went to NSW and VIC. pretty sure the VY SV8's were about 70-100kg lighter than an SS, maily due to the lower spec trim and less sound deadning.

As for oils.. Still..

Make sure you flush is if your going from Synthetic to Mineral or the other way round as you can't mix the two. It causes a chemical reaction and is not good!

Also, go to Big W for Castrol EDGE it was $56 bucks last week! :P

Ruby please change your avatar. I'm soooo sick of that homo comic male thrusting his groin on my screen that I skip all your posts and the ones directly above and below it.

It's worse than the blue mesh... at least I don't see that in my own home.

I guess you could say that the oil being dark might be because it's dirty. I was always under the impression that oil was used in engines ect ect as a lubricant rather than a cleanser :P

    • Depending on how long the car sat it is very possible for injectors to be stuck open or closed, I'd get them cleaned and flow tested. Other than that, obviously when the loom changes and the car doesn't start any more....the loom is suspect so some tracing / comparing may be required
    • Harness is for a s1 Rb25det, and it is engine and lower harness.  the old harness had broken off plugs and was in very rough condition/exposed wires and splices etc. it is not able to be put back on the car, I could visually inspect to see if they had rewired any pins on the ecu plug. The fuel pump definitly isn’t turning off it’s an external pump and very loud you can hear it. Will look at the other harness tonight, am also going to pull the fuel rail and watch the injectors spray, will update here with what I find. Pretty sure at this point it has to be something to do with injectors because car will fire up on starting fluid and cas is clicking the Injectors. Fuel pressure is steady 43psi 
    • Check the injectors flow evenly, and are actually flowing what you and the ECU think they should be flowing. If it's starting up on starter fluid, you have a fuel issue. Is it possible under cranking your fuel pump is turning off?   The harness you replaced, is that the whole engine harness? Do yourself a test, and drop the old harness on and plug it into the Z32 ECU. It's possible they've wired things different. From memory S1 to S2 is different in RB25 and you may have a wrong loom
    • I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off.
