Total washout today, sat on our arses till 4pm.

Let us out for restricted laps, somehow blew a coolant hose off when on the gas one lap :(

Then found the oil cooler leaking pretty bad once on the garage. Going to use a 180 fitting to bypass it and throw this cooler in the bin. Pretty bad quality for an Earls item, both fittings snapped off in the past, the brazing is just really bad.

Anyway, hope to be fixed in the morning for more aquaplaning :rolleyes:

Here is a skid from the other day.

Took it back to Earls when the second fitting snapped off, Martin wouldnt replace it because he said I should have come when the first one snapped?!

I said the brazing is obviously not strong enough as both fittings have snapped off... No dice.

Brand new cooler, both fittings broke off on first use, no refund?

Pretty open and shut, try once more then take it to fair trading.

Only questions I'd have are were the hoses supported well or able to move around fatiguing the joint? And when the fittings were done up was a second spanner used on the cooler end to make sure it doesn't twist.

Crap summer to be doing skids in a high power car, eh?

    • Yep, the closest base tune available was for the GTT, I went with that and made all the logical changes I could find to convert it to Naturally Aspirated. It will rev fine in Neutral to redline but it will be cutting nearly 50% fuel the whole way.  If I let it tune the fuel map to start with that much less fuel it wont run right and has a hard time applying corrections.  These 50% cuts are with a fuel map already about half of what the GTT tune had.  I was having a whole lot of bogging when applying any throttle but seem to have fixed that for no load situations with very aggressive transient throttle settings. I made the corrections to my injectors with data I found for them online, FBCJC100 flowing 306cc.  I'll have to look to see if I can find the Cam section. I have the Bosch 4.9 from Haltech. My manifold pressure when watching it live is always in -5.9 psi/inHg
    • Hi My Tokico BM50 Brake master cylinder has a leak from the hole between the two outlets (M10x1) for brake pipes, I have attached a photo. Can anyone tell me what that hole is and what has failed to allow brake fluid to escape from it, I have looked on line and asked questions on UK forums but can not find the answer, if anyone can enlighten me I would be most grateful.
    • It will be a software setting. I don't believe many on here ever used AEM. And they're now a discontinued product,that's really hard to find any easy answers on. If it were Link or Haltech, someone would be able to just send you a ECU file though.
    • Yes sir am asking is there possible way from aem tuner from wiring pins 
    • Have you checked cam to crank timing and confirmed balancer marks are correct?
