how are the wrists.?

JMW picked me up and threw me in the spa fully clothed lmao it was very funny

Fiance did but hes over it now he gets a little funny

wrist is gay made dion a potato salad last night and couldnt find my potato peeler so i had to use a knife

ok boys my air con was on in my house then it started spluttering then the house lights were flickering then the air con turned off.

For the past hour the lights have been going bright then dim and the kitchen light blew then the dryer started chirping then the lounge light blew and the washing machine started chirping

WTF

Disco lights lol. I can look at your air cond if you like since that's my trade. As for your lights flickering on and off, you might have had a power surge, might have been because of the air cond, can't really say without having a look. Maybe there is a sparky on the forum that could clarify this up?

poltergeists.

if its flickering and what not, id say you've got an overload. might be worth getting someone to check inside the main switchboard. aircon could be overloading the board (which sounds unusual if its only doing it now)

legally i cant poke around behind the switchboard but that sounds like where the problem might be

I have seen this before It soudns like the neutral supply to your house has a week connection. You need a good neutral for the return circuit to work. Eg power goes to your light switch then light then to neutral. So if the neutral is not a good bond it will make the lights dip and everything wont have its full voltage. Is it worse with more turned appliances turned on. The neutral can brake at the top of the stobie pole or in you meter box. Find out if any neighbours are having the same problem. Ive seen 2 house next door have the same problem because they both shared the same neutral. It could also be the pole top transformer just about to die putting out high volts (which blows globes). If you can get a multimeter put it on AC volts and put in power point you should have between 230-250v. You will need a sparkie to check if it is your problem or etsa's then you can go from there.

snap...........that would have been my next thought actually brad............did so many service replacements over in whyalla on standby down to old broken neutrals

I guess you would see this up the pole where I would of seen this in the back of the meter box. Sounds like we need a composite crew to go have a look.

ok update the hot water taps wont turn off in the laundry and i went to have a shower befor the water ran out and got zapped hardcore it made me scream and it hurt my hand my washing machine keeps on chirping and foxtel now wont work

    • So for the wide band is a Bosch 4.9 correct for the Link G4+ along with a Can bus? Just get the Link gear or is generic ok too? Eg here: LINK LINK DIGITAL WIDEBAND CAN MODULE WITH BOSCH 4.9 SENSOR : KYP Performance House  
    • Bit difficult to follow. Have a look below and see what the standard R32 layout was like. Note there was a restrictor in place immediately before "turbocharged pressure control solenoid" that, if removed, magically got you 1 bar boost.
    • I might be way off the mark here.. there must be a T junction under the manifold. That takes manifold pressure through a check valve prior to the T, one side splits out to this bleed off orifice, the other straight to the wastegate actuators. 
    • Carrying out some engine due diligence before my first drive in a 260RS that has been in storage for 10+ years, and found two lines that are susposed to be plumbed into the boost control solenoid. One of the lines (the wastegate boost supply line) to actuate the gates, had a bolt in one end blocking it. The other line (main boost signal line) from the very rear of the intake manifold (RB26DETT) and runs up to the boost controller had this pill in the end of it as seen in photos. Other than the obvious (T28 Ceramic turbos might well be cooked)  Can anyone shed any light on if there is any validity at all with this mod, bleeding a constant fixed rate of manifold boost pressure off through this 3mm hole?  Is it deliberate?  Was this a 90s Jap mod done to RB26's? Or has someone just fitted this without any idea of what happens to ceramic T28s if they are not gate controlled?
