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

Sweet, will keep an eye out for you! Be careful around Newcastle itself if your car is modified, the boys in blue had ruined the car scene up here due to the minority that spoilt it for all of us!

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.

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 :(

      R34 Handbrake light saying ON and intermittently flashing

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      This. The R34 handbrake icon DOES come up when the brake fluid level is low. You might be sitting right on that threshhold. I have been down this diagnosis path and this was the solution (and it was pretty much as full as your picture is to begin with).

      Unfortunately the cavaet to that is that while any scan tool should be able to read the code, the workshop will need a consult plug to OBD socket adapter. You don't have a location on your profile, where are you based?

      RB25DE NEO with Haltech ECU

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      @Haggerty this is your red flag. In MAP based ECU's the Manifold pressure X RPM calculation is how the engine knows it is actually...running/going through ANY load. You are confusing the term 'base map' with your base VE/Fuel table. When most people say 'base map' they mean the stock entire tune shipped with the ECU, hopefully aimed at a specific car/setup to use as a base for beginning to tune your specific car. Haltech has a lot of documentation (or at least they used to, I expect it to be better now). Read it voraciously.

      I saw you mention this earlier and it raised a red flag, but I couldn't believe it was real. Yes, the vacuum signal should vary. It is the one and only load signal from the engine to the ECU, and it MUST vary. It is either not connected or is badly f**ked up in some way.

      @Haggerty you still haven't answered my question.  Many things you are saying do not make sense for someone who can tune, yet I would not expect someone who cannot tune to be playing with the things in the ECU that you are.  This process would be a lot quicker to figure out if we can remove user error from the equation.
