  1. Gives off impco gas system vibes that whistle sound.
  2. Hard to find a good one now. Getting expensive. Cases are usually stuffed. But yep if you have a "turbo" pattern block (former th350 or th400) then it will bolt up. Or a conversion plate can be used if trimatic pattern.
  3. Yeah been around for about 20yrs or more
  4. Use VHT anodised spray paint. Paint over the chrome to get the anodised gold colour. Did this years ago when i couldn't get the engine accessories i wanted in the colours i wanted.
  5. There isnt a carby on the engine so hence looking around at what is available. So cant compare if jets etc would be interchangeable. Yeah ive heard about alot of new carbies that require a strip and clean before use due to swarf. I guess quality control inspections wont catch everyone? The main thing i was wondering is if they work well, once up and going. Such as no issues with transition from idle to WOT etc or if they flow the same as original or if even jetted the same etc. Ive even seen some carburetors where they have made the jets etc none changeable/removeable which is crap. Elec choke isn't needed. I just used that link as an example. Id actually prefer a manual choke set up. Thamks for the offer Joe, but sadly the postage would be a killer, as im from Australia.
  6. I run an Accu-spark unit in my car. Works great. Very easy to fit. No more point issues. Which was alaays a problem with my car.
  7. Has anyone used/tried one of these weber copies from ebay before? https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com.au%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F183730335652 are they any good or a pile of junk? will genuine weber parts fit? cant seem to find a good 2nd hand genuine one for a decent price (these are about the same price as a pile of crap 2nd hand carby). Cheers.

    Dead Generator

    Had a blackout so went for my generator but no go. Pulled it apart looking for the issue next day and seems the ignition coil is kaput. I dont have a book manual for it anymore and dr google hasn't helped with a part no. Etc. Its an old Robin r650 4stroke (just a small unit but good for lights etc) From what i can see its a subaru ey-08 engine. Ebay etc just seem to show ign coils for ey-20 engines. Anyone be able to point me out with a part number or a compatible unit to use etc? Cheers
  9. Thanks been trying several wreckers and British specialist spares around Australia but zero luck. Will have to keep looking
  10. Look slotted. I guess now to find someone/somewhere with some for sale lol
  11. Cheers. Anyone have a pic of what they look like? Ie a solid style or holes or slots etc.
  12. Mini are 10" Ha and hb are 12" Not sure on hc or victor. Im after 13"
  13. Hi I thought Id ask here as we don't have many Vauxhall's here in Australia. Im trying to find some 13" factory style steel rims with the 101.6mm pcd. Does anyone know what model Vauxhall may have had them? Victor, Cresta etc? Cheers.
  14. Does he have any 13" steel rims?
  15. Hey mate. Good to see the lil waGoon is still going strong! Still jealous we don't have viva goons in Australia.
