How many wires from the pole to the house?

Is the tyre machine cheap enough as in a couple of hundred or is it more than that?

Also be very careful what type of arm it has as some can move when taking off or fitting tyres and can scratch rims

Also a good idea to have one or two 15 amp outlets in a garage as well for welders or compressers if needed

3 I think, they replaced them the other day with a single wrapped wire but it still goes to the 3 poles I think....

The tyre machine is from my sisters work so it's cheap, looked OK from pics.... Been a while since I've done tyre fitting tho.... Then I guess the problem is no balancer, be good for skid rims etc but maybe not for other stuff....

Oh, and good point, have been running lights, welders and all sorts through a extension lead

haha dodgy bastard!!

nah its all good, 10 amp wires are rated more then what they can take 12 or 13?, the C/B trips it but overload takes like 30 mins before it trips, so if you constantly welded for 30 mins itd probably trip haha. it could probs run a welder no issues if you didnt have other shit on the circuit too, like if you ran a stove/oven and other shit itd probs trip quicker.

yeah... im not heaps sure about that sorta thing as i build/maintain/fix/anything locomotives haha. and we didnt go into incomers to much at tafe cause thats a specilised field.

it could be all 3 in insulation, you never know what creations there are haha.

lolololol do you have ceramic fuses in your switchboard? or switches??

Dude my house is about 100 years old, it's got a board with a couple of fuses and a hot water switch etc lol

Don't worry Martin, I run 2 welders of the same plug :P it loved it!!

haha i didnt say that!!!

how do you even get 15 amp stuff in a 10 amp plug?? if its 15 amp the bottom pin is to big to fit in. or did you file it down? hah

:yes: special extension lead

I never worry to much

Make sure you get one of those earth leakage switch trip things in the garage when it's wired up

Best thing ever invented and will kill the power before it kills you

f**kkkkinnnnn hell man! you should check to see if the wire is in the fuses and not a nail. if there fuses theyll trip easier but people often put nails in it so they dont trip, aka you have no protection and your house will burn down before it stops working.

suprised it hasnt already if your wires are that old man.

also, if you want me to run you a new circuit to your garage by law i have to rewire your whole house :(

Nah I think it's all fused man.... I've seen the nail trick, crazy kents!!!

Really? :( aww

Yea been reading for awhile, just had little input, my F&F memory was failing me haha..

    • Hi guys . Can someone help me  I bought an Android screen for my Nissan fuga but it won't turn on   
    • My guesstimate, with no real numbers to back it up, is it won't effect it greatly at all.its not a huge change in position, and I can't see the air flow changing from in turbulence that much based on distance, and what's in front of it. Johnny and Brad may have some more numbers to share from experience though.
    • Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).
    • Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers    
    • Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
