  2. Give engine a hardcore degrease/clean then look where the oil comes from
  3. Auto and marine upholstry off commerce st
  4. Still gota get towbar fitted to my van before I can tow it lol. And yeah quite a bit work/bog ahead
  5. HI there Yes that carbs off a 1600 sport escort, and the autochoke mechanism has been removed, hence no linkage to the choke lever. It is not the same as the 32/36, the 32/36 is in relation to the primary and secondary barrels of the carb. DGAV 32 means both are 32mm.
  6. Sweet most of the engineering done, just needa box up the front section and make a lid on top, will give extra storage. Done away with rear axle, escort front strut stubs welded onto steel tube
  7. Bit of a work in progress... Decided the rear half of my old van was too good to scrap Doesnt owe me anything and sold the front of it for a ok price. Should be at some stage matched colour to my other van and mags etc, make for lush camping trips/crusing
  8. Engine reconditioner down port road does bead blasting
  9. Using a 32/36 not suited to a 1600 engine? 3B and 5E are the only 32/36's suited to a 1600 engine
  10. I have quite a few of the parts you will want, I believe its not easy or that reliable to setup but is possible, I have never set it up myself
  11. Pre xmas meet?? Keen as always, some one say a date and see if we can get a few there??
  12. Cortina and sierra speedo cables work fine, they have the same fittings, the sierra cable is longer, which is preferable
  13. Nah man, the cortina carbs are a weber which wouldnt have anything to do with holley. Maybe falcon carby??
  14. Super wikid car man, so you might be selling some gaz fronts to suit mk2 escorts ? What sorta price? are they new?
  15. If you let it continue to run on like that its guna do some damage. One thing you can do to stop it is to put it in top gear with the handbrake on and stall the engine out. But really you needa solve the issue causing the run on...
  16. Welcome to the site Perhaps the idle is set too high, does it have a rev counter? You could slightly lower it and see if it improves. There will be a screw that acts as the stopper for the throttleshaft Single throat carb I pressume?
  17. Make an offer on these 2lt pinto parts if ur keen Also got a decompression plate

  19. Bumping for great justice, almost any weekend wud suite me. Keen for meet/cruise/feed etc DOET
  20. You may need to shift the battery to the boot to gain a bit more room in the engine bay. And would depend how long your inlet manifold is.
  21. What sorta info where you after mate? You will need to modify the clutch and accelator cables. Lengthen the wiring to the alternator, you will also need a set of extractors to suite a 2lt in a escort, coby do a set. Use the standard escort mounts and modify the sump or get a austalian 2lt escort sump. I just got a full new exhaust setup made. What gearbox are you using?
  22. Your doing a 2lt conversion aint ya? If so what are you worried about, carbs are on the other side...
