Mugabetown - Whoretownin' At It's Worst.


Recommended Posts

We've been over this before....

ECU isn't compatible. Plenty of servos around. Why bother.

orly?

The reason I ask is because of this

Dalby Ethanol Bio-Refinery under threat of closure. - See more at: http://www.unitedpetroleum.com.au/united/news/news-item/news/2014/02/17/dalby-ethanol-bio-refinery-under-threat-of-closure-#sthash.i1z8FdYx.dpuf

Almost didn't stay up for the race last night. Glad I did :), but boy am I going to pay for it today. Struggle street... :S

Pretty sure I will be going home this arvo to watch it online... I like 4 or the top 5 so I will like the race at least :P

Yeah. And by carrying jerry can problem solved. In fact I can fit 2 of the 20L ones in easily. It was really more of a question of do i stop at every servo along the way or do I take the Jerry can so I can stop less to save time, As I was trying to cram Leyburn and Kawana into one day. My range is limited however, yes, but honestly I don't think that i'll need to go further than a bit of planning will allow at any point in the future.

Part of it is also that i'm still trying to get a handle on the economy of the new Fuel. I was getting 17-18L/100km on the first few tanks but these were city and spirited driving, so max 400km from a tank. From T'bar>Leyburn>home>Logan servo on Saturday I averaged 14.7L/100km which is much better, almost 500km/tank range there.

Once I get the O2 sensors in hopefully it'll be even better again!

I travelled to and from bribie island though so there was some km's involved. I left my house with a full tent got to the BBQ point with half tank, threw in my 20L then drove home and once I got there I had half a tank again. A lot better than I expected really

Guess it's less painful paying $1.25 p/litre

Mitsubishi ASX is a POS but fuel efficient... Just don't try to overtake, or corner at a normal speed on a slightly rough road... Needless to say it was over 10hrs in a boring car on the weekend...

What ecu are you using Pete? Nistune?

How will narrowband O2's help with e85?

Better off removing closed loop IMO and tuning for a targetted afr at cruise ;)

    • That's all I needed mate thanks.  For context, we've seen a big number of old accounts being hacked into and then used to post spam. I was wondering if yours had also.  I've never had a good funnel. My driveway can attest to that. 😔
    • I am not a spammer ,, all I can say I have been member of the forum since a while ,,,,and as admin you can verify the time of registration I have 5 funnels none of them fit firmly. Similar thread was posted on the forum below but  it is US based : https://www.f150gen14.com/forum/threads/no-more-spilled-oil-during-an-oil-change-spill-free-oil-funnel.26438/page-2
    • Your post has me puzzled. I have a lot of "spammer" warning signs flashing at me.  Are you honestly, truly, asking for our feedback on oil funnels? For 4 completely different cars?  They're 20 bucks! Just buy one and see!  Maybe I'm missing something?  My finger is hovering above the "flag as spammer" button... Convince me not to click it.  
    • I used to have Walbro 255's when they were a pretty common update. (or were they 044? 040?) In any case I had a dirty tank. I thought the tank was good, but I would find the filter would clog in maybe ~50km of driving. If the issue persists, well, your fuel system or tank has crap in it that the pump is sucking up.
    • Hi. Ok thanks for the info. I/we do not know what tune is on that Nistune ECU so it is why there is stock ECU and that Nistune is for later when the car is done. I have guy who tunes Nistune and other ECU so i will then take it to him to see and properly tune for the car   And for the update. On 99,9% it is bad fuel pump. Which is wierd cuz it is like 2 years old(brand new walbro 255) and that filter (also brand new) was dirty.  I was alwaya pumped premium(100) on very good petrol station so i dont know how is that possible...
