  1. Ok Sweet as............ But what is up with the brakes??? Are they holding on??
  2. Get the idea??? Is good fun. Oneday maybe I will get up there.............
  3. You get that clutch sorted yet?
  4. Its getting feed back through the (+) side of the wiring. When I fitted up my electric fuel pump it made my tacho bounce, all I did was change the (+) on the fuel pump and no more bounce. Try it and see if it works.
  5. Cool. If you need any more help and shit, just give me a yell.
  6. It could be "bypassing" in either cylinder(master or slave) and if it was you wouldnt see any fluid as what happens is, once the car is left over night or for acouple of days the fluid will flow back into the reservoir. So no you would see any fluid leak. So when which you jump back in the car and have to pump up the pedal to get the fluid that has leaked out(back into reservoir) so you have pressure again and like you say the clutch is working fine. If it is "bypassing" then you will have to get either or both looked at. I still think that it is an adjustment issue at the clutch fork. Have you use a standard clutch and pressure plate??? As the gap between the two is very important. I also see that you are using a lighten flywheel does it have a "step" in it??? As the "step" could be wrong?? I know that if I am 0.1 of a mm out when I machine a flywheel the clutch will not operate correctly. Also it could be that you clutch has some oil on it from when you had that weeee leak from the rear seal?? I hope this is helping and not confusing you more.
  7. Also how are you bleeding the clutch??? ie rapid pumping and then opening the bleeder nipple or with an open bleeder nipple and pumping slowly, then closing once you are no longer getting any air bubbles??? As you may still have air in the system if you are using the rapid pumping method, which if you havnt guessed isnt the one to be using.
  8. Sounds like it is "bypassing" in the cylinder and a bigger cylinder will only give you more volume and less pressure small cylinder give less volume and more pressure bigger is not always best when it comes to hydrolic oil and cylinders whether its to do with clutches or master cylinders on brakes. What you are best to do is either get another cylinder that is the same as th one you are using now or get your one re - sleeved.
  9. Somehow I dont think a bigger cylinder will fix it. I bet its the travel in the fork set up. Re - adjust it.
  10. I was contacted today and ask if I could post up this event. As of yesterday lunch time there had only been one confirmed entry. Last year we had 60 odd cars..... So I dont know whats up with this year??? I did it last year, but I spun a bearing half way through the day. Was good fun up until that point. They are doing an Autocross, 1/4 mile, Go to Whoa and Circuit Sprint. Cost to enter is $60.
