Other thread got closed so for those interested the seargeant has removed my yellow sticker today after he recieved a copy of my letter.

So there you go, if you get a yellow sticker that is GENUINLEY wrong such as defects listed that are not realy defects (check with pits first if you are not sure) do the following things:

Call the station where the officers who have given you the yellow sticker are based and ask to speak to the officer in charge of them and explain your situation. If that fails:

Write a letter addressed to the officer in charge of which ever department gave you the yellow sticker explaining your situation and make sure you send it via registered mail. Make shure that you put the following line somewhere in it: "I do not wish to make a formal complaint against the officers at this stage as I hope to resolve this matter without the need for one"

And the most importaint bit is never abuse anyone, if you do your chances of getting anywhere dissapear fast.

So there you go, sometimes these things can end well :laugh:

Seargeant called me today and asked if I could come by so he could have a quick look at the car (I listed my phone number in my letter as one of the means I can be contacted by), he glanced over all the things that were listed as defective on the sticker notice and took the sticker off. Had a chat to him for a while, realy decent guy actualy

Congrats buddy! I bet you're relieved! Did the officer end up giving you some kind of explanation as to why he was "unhappy" with the previous inspection? It's so rare, hearing about officers removing defects that they've issued...big win!

Again, well done! :laugh:

The seargeant who removed the sticker was the seargeant in charge of the officers who issued me with the sticker. Havent seen or spoken to the officers who gave it to me in the first place since the incident so no explanation given, it realy does not mater though, by removing the sticker they admit wrong doing so thats that.

    • The final part arrived today to un-clampify and simplify the intake Who would have though a 1/2" hose stainless bulkhead fitting designed for below waterline bilge pumps would be what I needed Test fit on a 3" offcut I had laying around to see if it would work, and it worked a treat All going well the intake will be on its "final version" tomorrow

    • Must have been an absolute nightmare to drive when the power steer was out, the rack ratio/wheel size/caster is all set up for power assistance
    • Welcome to SAU, what are you looking at buying?
    • I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
