I replaced my fuel filter a couple of months back. So I am doubtful that's causing problems. I put an in line filter after the fuel pump as well as new fuel hose between the pump and the carby just today on a suggestion from my mate last night and I've heard a few guys on here mention it before ...

The weirdest thing happened tonight. Well I was driving home from work and noticed some slight deceleration when leaving my foot steady on the accelerator pedal. Anyway I got in the car to go to my mates house to talk about the issue with the car among other things. Anyway, by this stage the zook ...

think about how muck pissing around there is doing efi and the cost of efi. there is a lot less with a weber and ya can have it all done and working for under $300. and the difference is huge Well from what I've gathered on how you can put TBI on, it wouldn't be that much more expensive. Could even ...

Did a compression pressure check this arvo and well I'm a little concerned. Results were from the front cylinder to the back. psi - kPa 143 - 990 132 - 910 129 - 895 123 - 850 From a manual I have it says it should be 199 psi with the limit being 170, with a maximum 14.2 variance between them. The ...

Well it was a not so clean fuel supply that started this whole problem. When I bought it I changed all the oils, air and oil filter and new plugs. But I forgot the fuel filter and as luck would have it, it hadn't been changed in quite some time. It was absolutely full of black muck and was letting ...

Don't know if that's what you'd call em but ah well. Can anyone make a suggestion as to someone who does a good job and is reasonably priced ? I just really can't be bothered with it anymore. Basically I want to either have the carb stripped down and rebuilt professionally. Buy a previously rebuilt ...

Sounds like the idle jet. My fuel filter gave out and let mud-like fuel through the carby. Temporarily blocked the main jet and then it blocked the idle which didn't manage to unblock itself. Would stall instantly as soon as you had it at idle. Had to rebuild the carby and now theres something ...

Well the new name for my Sierra is Shuffle. Why? Because "Random is the New Order" and my zooks pretty damn random at the moment. Basically a shitload of gremlins have been at the engine. It now has some issues. Both electrical and carby. Well story is this. Autochoke doesn't work. Unless you have ...

just trying to convice you to move to another state to get cheaper rego...

My soft-top is registered as a ute.

Paid $180 for 6 months non-business, WA by the way.

From memory it would have been around $345 for a full year.

People have said regos slightly less for utes because they're commerical vehicles.

Yeah well its pretty much closed completely with the engine off so thats probably it.

Thanks for that, I'll try and sort it out later today.

By the way, I'm assuming that the little bar is meant to be straight ?

right well. The fuel filter on the zook gave up and let filthy fuel into the carb. The fuel was black. This pretty much caused some problems, blocking up the main jet, which cleared itself. Then blocking the idle jet, which didn't. So the carbs been taken apart cleaned and rebuilt and put back on ...

it is not pvc... it was all exhaust tube....and flexible pipe. I stand corrected. I never said it actually was though... just looks exactly like the PVC setup I was talking about. Anyway as for the kit. I just said it seems pricey because it doesn't include any ducting. Thats the whole reason my ...

I think the one on suzisport is a bit pricey, apparently includes an adjustable computer, still not really justifialbe in my opinion. Main thing is it has stuff with it to convert to EFI. Still pretty pricey though as it doesn't seem to include ducting or anything. The 4AGZE supercharger is meant to ...

Do you have to have an exact replacement ? I'm fairly sure Super Cheap or Repco or whoever have a replacement cap... they had the part number in their list for it, just no stock at the one closest to me... otherwise ask the wreckers... or as NUGGS said... you can trade... which would be a fair deal ...

I want TBI for the reason beastmavster said. I just want a bolt on replacement. Don't wanna stuff around with heads and that. I thought it was the over way round. I thought a TBI vit would be easier to get. As for supercharger my mates dad has the same supercharger as yours lying around in his ...

Alright from what I've been able to gather this is a relatively easy way to convert to EFI. Of course I know its not exactly simple in reality. It involves using the intake manifold, loom and computer from a TBI engine from either a Vitara or Swift. So I was just wondering if you guys thought one ...

Powdercoating is a type of paint/paintstyle. Dry paint particles are applied in a powder and baked on. In a nutshell.

Anyway costs maybe a few hundred, not completely sure though.

Widetrack was released in 88. Mines an 89 and I got it for $3000 with a dodgy donk. I reckon it was a bargain as the body was straight, had rarely been off-road and very little rust. Only problem was the engine, which was fixed quite cheaply but it will need a rebuild due to age and kays. Checking ...

Stock engine. Clocked up 216k. Is burning oil at a rate of about 1-2L per 500km. Probably will need a rebuild or just be replaced sometime soon. Gets between 10-14L / 100km, depending on conditions. But that was with the throttle not opening fully. Now it pretty much opens completely. So I'm ...

Well I would only be paying attention to something with "fuel catalyst" in it if I had a car that needs to run on LRP. Apparently you need some sort of catalyst because the servos are cutting supply.

Apart from that I'd say stay away.

May sound kind of stupid.

Can you get it electroplated ?

Probably wouldn't be as thick and it might be hard if not impossible to find someone that can do large stuff.

Aside from that...

I don't see why not.

no-one admires a nice oil filler bolt!!!! do they? so why worry. Not the looks I'm worried about. Just want to make sure it doesn't seize up again. Plus the square hole is now more like a rhombus. So don't want to do it up as tight as I can only to make the hole into a circle trying to get it off ...

Room in the zook. Not exactly roomy, but also not cramped. I'm over 6" and pretty big. I just tend to rest my right arm on the door for a bit more room. You can still easily drive without your arm hanging out the door, but its more comfy. In the zook you're in a more upright position, so I don't ...

Well changed the oil in the diffs, transfer and gearbox yesterday. But just thought I'd bring this up. Has anyone else had problems with the diff fill plug seizing up and being a pain in the ass to get off ? When me and my mate were doing the front diff fill plug we first tried a normal socket set ...

edit: forgot to remove highlighting.

Don't think mine'll do that many. Previous owner drove around in it running on only 3 cylinders for a bit, might have put some extra strain on the engine. But yeah, I've serviced it myself, new plugs, oil, oil filter and air filter. Timing was retarded so advanced it to factory tiiming and corrected ...

Well I thought early 90s swifts had injection. I remember reading some article on the net and the guy was fixing up an old Swift (with SOHC engine) and was saying about the ECU, plus the engine is apparently TBI (atleast for the 1992 SOHC). Know you can't always trust the net but I'd always ...

Tried a search but came up with nothing to do with what I want, so either I suck at searching or this has never come up. How many k's can I roughly expect from a stock engine ? Well atleast before major issues that cost the $s I know this would depend on if its been thrashed, how well its looked ...

Mine starts sounding bad when it gets to around 4k revved hard, mainly in the lower gears. The engine starts screaming and some strange noises start. Sounds like vibrations or something grinding, doesn't sound good either way. So I generally try to avoid revving it hard up to 4k and rev it harder on ...
