Ah big fella how nice it must be to have your own little fan club.

I might have to give you some pointers on the old classic reach-around so you can service all your bitches properly.

since the fuel tank and shit fuel thing i have bodged up a new filling method to be extra filtered

basically used a walbro gtr setup, added a ciggy lighter connect + fuel filter + toggle switch = new way to filter fuel before it goes into the car

triple back up now so the ar has 4 filters have a crack at the fuel before it hits the engine

ps fyou blaxland e85

takes 4 minutes to empty a 20 litre tank so me thinks walbros 400 litre a hour ratting is bs

you old men! it takes like 30 seconds to hold the thing and fill it

lol super cheap can takes about 3 minutes as they are shit

It's not the point.

You can be drinking a beer while it's filling up.

dam straight

main issue is the two children

have other things to do between sessions

got a few good sessions in the old girl today

1:03 flat which is a .7 improvement

i think the old f**ker has a low 1:02 in it no dramas but once again ran into some drama so didnt get many runs in (

missfire when she got hot ( so after 6 laps))

then the power steering lunched itself and gizzed on the track and the day was over

    • Ah ok. I seem to be mixing it like everyone else does so not sure what's happening. Will experiment with it more.
    • Depends on what you mean by OK. First up, was this done cold or hot? Are they reasonably consistent? Yes, they are reasonably consistent. Could be better. But unless it has had a build at some point, it is a ~30 year old engine and you'd expect some variation. Some of the difference could also be in user technique Is it good compression? Well....not numerically, no. New they were >160 psi. The one at 140 would be fine, in that context. If they were all ~140, you'd be reasonably happy. But the one that is @120 is twice as far down from the original numbers as the one @ 140. But.. (again)... technique can play a part in the absolute magnitude of these numbers, and the quality/state of repair/accuracy of the pressure gauge is not known. In the context of the above, the compression tester that was used last on my car is regularly compared to a known good pressure gauge. Not calibrated, exactly, but compared to a reference instrument that is not used for any other purpose, so cops no abuse. So we can trust the measurements off that tester. But another tester in the same workshop wasn't being compared against the standard and was reading a good 30ish psi lower. When you're reading 100 psu but the engine is really doing 130, you can make bad decisions.
    • More likely from tiny bubbles in the filler/putty. Maybe be less aggressive when mixing it. Perhaps invest in a vacuum chamber to pull the air bubbles out?** **I don't know if this is a thing for body filler. I see hardcore epoxy makers degassing their mixed resin on the regular.
    • IIRC, the speedo on these is fed from the sensor in/on the snout of the diff.
    • They were. I bought the AWD for experimenting but racing it would disqualify or disadvantage me from a few race classes. Def getting a FWD for racing.
