have you checked the ign and sense wires are around the correct way also does the draw dissapear when you unplug the alt leaving the main terminal on.

1300/1600? Low/high compression?

or a supercharger with a burst plate:)

gates

sump and pickup finished gates and baffles should work good also added future turbo drain plug

In short no but can be made to work. The escort has rack and pinion steering and is mounted forward of the crossmember and cortina has steering box on the rear. You can fit a complete escort crossmember with a few modifications but will need to change steering column brake lines engine sump adjustable bottom arms and sway bar so bit of a ,major better off finding a full mk2 cortina disc brake front they are a bit hard to get but will cost you less in the end. (sorry thought you were upgrading from drums to discs so as above)

reversed 4age sump all tigged up as looks mean now for baffles and gates she be mint hold 5 litres of oil too doing the leak test overnight only 2 pinholes by the looks easy fix

got my sump back from a mate who tigged it up 4 me came up mint now to make the baffles and gates and engine in time

change injector 2 and 3 plug over as the silvertop is bank fired no 1 & 4 fire together and 2&3 fire together so if it shifts to cylinder 3 the problem is a broken wire between cyl 2 and 3 if not check compression

i have only 25thou clearance between the flywheel and the bellhousing is that enough you recon flywheel shouldnt grow should it

So een a while got my release bearing sorted had to grind out my bellhousing to fit my flywheel inside have put new seals and a shifter bushes in the gearbox happy with my drive belt arangment also. Constructed a new sump version 3.1 and am having it welded up at the moment will get some photos up of that when i get it back. Have also scored and oil cooler and remote filter kit so my sump and cooler should hold around 5 to 5.5 litres of oil (better than the standard 3.75 litres they hold standard. also have finished my 4k to 4age distributor mod hopoefully have the engine dooorting in a few weeks (owned for nearly 10 years never had it running) fingers crossed its a goodie.

Check the main fuse link wire at the battery(or solenoid) to feed the whole car also check the alternator plug. my mk1 has the batttery feed on one terminal and the rest of the car on the other (if it has a lucas alternator) so if you unplug the alternator the whole car is dead also check that the plug on the bottom of the main fusebox hasnt fallen off (above the glovebox passsenger side)

i have done a bit of resarch into this and have found people have been sucessful on this with only a single carb and no engine mods as the timing control is vacume sensed so if you are running sidedrafts or cams the vacume will be too unstable for an acurate reading causng the timing to jump all around the show better off with aftermarket ecu i would say

heater pipes i would say it looks to have fwd top water neck and rwd waterpump with a modified thermostat bypass hose on it

hey bro word of caution those back side panels will need reinforcing with speakers in them both my anglias had them speakers in them and they fell to bits from the weight glue a sheet of that bendy ply to the back of them around the speaker area so they last coz they are a bit hard to replace these days.

can probly help yo out with the .1 idle jet holders only found 3x .45 pump jets all the other jets are too small sorry but i do have a full set of jet drills from 1 mm to 2.5 mm you can borrow and some donor jets to solder and re drill

ive got heaps of weber and dellorto jets what are you after

check also cam angle sensor just done one last week for a customer just run a meter over it and check it is not open circut

make sure the butterfly screws havnt come loose as they can shift around in the shafts causing them to jam if so loosen them off but dont remove the screws and snap open and close the throttle a few times with the idle screws backed off the butterflys should re seat then re tighten the screws

Use a nissan pulsar n13 distrubutor 1 hour on the lathe fits mint under manifold had mine in for ten years never had the cap off timing hasnt shifted a degree whole job about $250 2nd hand dissy new cap and rotor.I have fitted 5 or more to 1600s over the years never had an issue. http://www.nissanclub.cz/graphics/owners/full/4544_567_sunkmotor.jpg one of these dizzys

14.7 volts is completely normal 99% of new cars regulate at that some at 14.9 try leaving your engine running for 5 minutes or so to let the battery stablize and the voltage should drop to about 14.5 turn on the headlights wipers and stuff and it should maintain that voltage. Calcium batteries require a minimum of 14.6 volts to charge and if they are flattend dead dead flat they need to go on a calcium pulse charger to recharge to 100% oterwise they only recharge to about 60% of there full potential.

TRY A 1UZFE TRACTION CONTROL TPS AS THEY RUN THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION TO 4AGE AND 3SGE TPS HAVE USED ONE ON A 2JZ WITH A 90MM THROTTLE BODY WORKS MINT

I used plastic fuel line from an old mk4 cortina for reservoir to master lines with banjo fittings cylinder end hose clamped at reservoir end found euro cars like alfas and stuff have single reservoir with three outlet hoses for front rear clutch easy mounting too good thing bout the plastic fuel line is that you can mould it with a heat gun and cool with water to hold there shape
