does it have 2 brakes? please explain

and a dwell meter! they are like $2 off trademe

turn the ign off take the cap off pull the rotor out turn your multimeter to continuity check beeeper put one probe on the battery negitive post put the other on the coil negitive post open and close the points with your finger, toe, or tounge. if it doesnt stop beeping report back here and say "it diddnt stop beeping!" if it beeps and stops congratulations you can continue to the next step. next, turn the ignition ON turn your meter to 12V DC test mode. put one probe on the negitive battery post, the other on the postive coil post if everything is ok your meter will read 6 volts (or 12 volts) if it doesnt, report back here and say "it doesnt have power at the coil in the ON key position" if it does, continue to the next step. leave the multimeter probes where they are, and watch the meter as you crank the engine over, if it reads zero, report back here that "i dont have power at the coil when cranking my engine" if it reads 6 or 12 volts, continue to the next step. now, buy a dwell meter. take your spark plugs out, (label where your leads go first!) now with a socket ratchet thing turn the motor over by hand, watch what the points are doing, set the point so it just baaarreeely opens at the "high parts" of the thingy that pushes it. put your plugs and leads back in gently (if you drop them or anything, report back here!!) now connect your new dwell meters black lead to the coil negitive post, and the red lead to the positive coil post, re assemble your distributator, now crank your motor and look at the dwell meter, keep adjusting the points and ressabling your distributer untill you get 50 degrees of dwell, dont rush you have allll day!!!!!! congratulations your ignition system is now working correctly and your point gap is set correctly. dont touch it again!! report back here when you are done!!!!!! but wait...your car still wont start? we now need to do 2 things, 1, check your leads are in the right order, check condition of leads and plugs, and 2, you will need to set your ignition with a timing light now too, but we will cover that once you have reached here. enjoy your evening!!! dont rush!!

did you set the dwell angle on your new points or just slam them in? kkkolonial gets upset if you dont clean the contacts with a little something something before installation too, but i think hes a weener.

but i take it apart more often than i race it (which is never) based on popular opioion ill put an air one in it it would be good to get one that could do both trans and motor as my gearbox has a (oem) radiqator too and im kind of having radiatorintercoolergearbioxcooleroilcooler overload.

on my mazda b6t motor it comes factory with a really queer oil cooler mounted on the filter pedistal that uses coolant to cool? it. it really looks gay with all the rats nest of heater hoses required to use it, im pretty keen to put it in the bin as its the last thing that makes working on the car/replacing motors and stuff a chore im kind of thinking its just there to extend oil change intervals or something, none of the other 90's small 4cyl turbos seem to have them?? i feel like i have read that statement somewehre before?? maby if the oil gets too hot i can just turn the water temp down to like 70 deg to keep the oil cool??????? i think ill do it regardless edit ah yeah its a racecar that sees about 1 day of track time a year

Unbeilievibly cool!

Miniman, did you tag miniman in a guestbook recently or is there another miniman?

dont speed?

No idea about the machine but liners are a consumable get them from like kendal in auck etc edit they take like 1 minute to replace and cost like 15 bucks

woo year

bad ass

what is the purpouse of outboard injection besides it looking ultra cool?

teh technucklalitys of doing it? make a tempory man sized bush to locate the center of the crank to the center of the spugget shaft get plate of arriminum cut a whole in middle, put between gbox and motor rotate gearbox and motor to required angle drill back thru bolt holes of gearbox and motor tap holes/put studs in. put in boot & tell local clutch man to provide a clutch/space flywheel/hatever. (i just rang autoclutch and said xyz) phosphor bronze bush for spigget bearing

you got a brand spankers microtec + igniters for 1500?

have you had a look at the new g4 atom? there only $1500,

O hai bizzo, just writing to add in a "yeeah boyyy!".

^ would you happen to be the younger engineer who was at the boatshows?

In fo' this

Yes thanks

performance aside, my doors are like #8 and with buckets it takes me about 30 seconds to climb into it + it hurts a freind with the same car and buckets has doors like #17 and its 1000% better to get in and out of. edit also- i have to move my outlet over too on same radiator, is it a single pass radiator?/if not what did u do?

+1 vote for tuesday to put something to look foward to into what is generally the worst day of the week.
