Pull the fuel pump fuse and crank it

Should fire in the residual fuel in the cylinders

Sounds like the injectors are stuck open for some reason

Yeah this.... Give that a go.... Shouldn't be able to hydraulic lock one of these engines.... When the lines were backwards you would have had a heap of fuel pressure so maybe, but not now.....

I know fuel systems lol

Just don't let me touch it or it'll never go again!

Martin, too much rain?

Martin, too much rain?

when running slicks any amount of rain is to much rain

still first event run and suprised how much grip was available even though the track was wet to very wet all day

stopped raining just long enough to dry out a little bit and managed to set a decent time on the last run of the day

was first in class all day and managed a fourth outright in a field of 45 cars so not a bad effort

just cant beat 4WD in the wet

Good afternoon everyone

I need some tech help that I'm hoping someone can help me with

I have some vids from yesterday and need them edited to be able to upload them to Facebook or hosted on YouTube so wondering if anyone can help with this please

Thanks

im in birmingham gardens. it was suffering from hydralic lock which has been cured by accidently spraying a mate with petrol (he is okay now). the new problem is it is cranking but not igniting. so im thinking when the bosch spark plugs got submerged in water they died. we've called it quits for today. it also has a semi flat battery. its at 11v with the ignition off and drops to 3v during cranking so weve been using the forester to jump it. so at this stage im thinking ill invest in a set of ngk plugs, some new oil and then i need to get some fuel to my place from the servo as im running too low to make it to a servo when she does come back to life. also has anyone had any issue with bosch plugs?

See if u can borrow a set of coil packs from someone to, could be them, the stock packs are shit house.

Feel free to whore away :-)

I've been busy with work :domokun:

im trying to catch up on all the work ive missed getting everything sorted for my apprenticeship next week

BTW

Just a quick question for you all

Who would be keen for a come and try day at the local hillclimb track on the 16th Feb?

Cost is $25 from memory but not sure on car requirements yet as far as extinguisher etc goes.

That sounds pretty cool....

Can you hit pretty fast speeds on that hillclimb track or is it fairly slow and twisty

What do you call fast?

You can go as fast as you like just remember you have to keep on the track though or shit gets real in a hurry

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
