Ken, Did the truck get taken away? Did Shaun offer to sell it?

You aren't going to believe it but there was 6 speeds in that crappy box and it's turboed!!

Never felt it kick in but he said it won't boost till 2,300 and he rings it out till 3,500.

We changed at 2400...

Cheers

Ken

The runt might not survive another hammering but if it's still here , then guess what...:(

Ken thinking of buying slow arse trubblesome truck ........ with two ugly mugs on the side?

Won't be troublesome, we fixed the thing as we went:mad:

He wants too much atm but I told him when he wants to really sell it , talk to me.

Cheers

Ken

the person "interested" going to do the work on her?

i think you should let me have a drive of the Runt before you sell her .... after all i cant do much more damage than whats already been done *insert puppy dog eyes here* :(

LOL @ Ken, Didn't know it was turbo, and I thought you and Lumpy were mechanics:p

Didn't say I was any good..:(

The thing never gave any indication it was and there certainly was no * kick in the back* but as the posts above say ,we changed just as it started to come on:mad:

Cheers

    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
    • Yeah, I would have said the same. It makes me suggest that there are other things wrong, such that the ECU is totally unhappy with the broken sensor. The only other thought here is that maybe it is shorted, which might cause a different issue to the typical "disconnected" sensor.
