LoL, ain't nothing mighty about the Dai...

You're all smoking crack. It'll probs get there, tho.

Maytes. If we're doing this bad, maybe we should pass the hat around and hire them a shiny new Tiida.

Oops, tho SDI can support multiple devices. Edit, analogue amp here: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32965912818.htm $34 for 2x or here https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32875383430.html @NickJ

Add a amplifier? https://learn.adafruit.com/adafruit-max31865-rtd-pt100-amplifier/arduino-code?view=all

Yeah, not really able to help here, sorry... Any 'o the V8 crowd?
-
Nah mate, you drive, I drink. Drunken rail Barry sharns ahoy!
-
That's ... almost in Daihatsu range.
-
Likewise, pls.

Which I'd also be keen for, hypothetically

Wander over to the SI events thread. Unsure if anyone's threatening to gather up before then...

I paused your video as the siren was going off, and there was a siren in-sync in the background here. Aliens. Off topic. Not spam? -

Cool. It looks like 80% of the benefit is using a heat-sink in the base in reverse to couple the flame heat into the liquid, and also insulating the sides. I wonder if it'd be worth passing the exhaust up the side a bit, too Or something like this: https://www.wired.com/2014/07/a-jet-engineer-designs-a-saucepan-that-heats-up-super-fast/ Maybe even with a shroud up around the gas to keep it in to the sides of the pot, during the windy. Step one, glue 486 heatsink to bottom of pot? -
https://www.jaycar.co.nz/4017-decade-counter-divider-cmos-ic/p/ZC4017 or https://www.jaycar.co.nz/4024-7-stage-ripple-carry-counter-divider-cmos-ic/p/ZC4024 should sort that out for you for $2. You just wanna de-noise and spike protect the sensitive CMOS inputs.

I have a bunch of leftover wierdo Hall effect sensors you can have if you want. SOT-23? (Size of a grain of rice). It'll cost you drinking a cuppa and having to listen to some random wombling sharn.

I'd suggest not putting the sense at the end of the starter cable, there could be some goodly spikes, because while it's low resistance, any inductance there on the large starting currents could result in a healthy back EMF. You'd need an oscilloscope to diagnose if that's the case. Probably better to put the sense wire close to the battery?

Not that weird English thing with electromagnets or some such? @governorsam has refurbed one successfully.

I, ah, may have dropped muffins in to the crew at AppCo. You know, because muffins make cars go betterer.

The lump above is still on the bench, other life things have needed doing. Then on Friday, during lots of urgent jobs, the throttle cable let go as I was leaving Jaycar. I scooted around a quick 180 on the remaining momentum, and a nice tradie, helped me push it into Appco, the trade autoparts place right there. They were great about it, let me fill one of their carparks for the rest of the day (they looked busy AF). The chick at the counter gave me a mobile mechanics number, and I sicced him on to it while I did urgent stuff. Vinny managed to cram the job in during a busy day for him; also noticed and replaced the clutch cable while he was at it, and did a bang on job of adjusting up the new cables. God jerb! Pretty good outcome really. This engine still feels like it's leaking in air at idle / over run, but I closed off the 2T oil by 1/2 turn (was too oil rich) and the idle air circuit 1/2t, and it's now acceptable enough until I get time to swap the crab. So, looking down the back of the motor (my tuning notes for later):
-
Push air over the back corner of the cab for open road airflow?

Hi new users, If you're on mobile and can't see the signatures, thread for places to get Kei / Fellow parts is here:
-
Have a go. If it doesn't work reliably, have a friend with an oscilloscope check it for correct voltages / impedance matching / polarity etc or just use TAI so the points last waaaay longer.

Crissskes watch your eyeballs. Milliseconds. The fun bit* is that you won't notice at first as the brain fills in little gaps like the one over the optic nerve. Until there's heaps of damage. *Not actually fun.
