WARTYM

need my triumph urgently picked up from massey in auckland and delivered to morrinsville.

Will pay $150 cash

need it done before this sunday

was going to pick up my self but had problems with my towing truck

and car transporters cant get it to me before next Thursday ( they quoted me $150 so i will pay that to who ever can help me)

let me know asap

txt 021 1580919 or flick me a pm

car runs and drives so can be driven onto the truck/trailer and driven off

Brought this from trademe last night , just gotta go pick it up now

interior looks pretty good

yeah, engine is toast, needs new rings at a guess, as iv got oil out from the exhaust side..

might re-build it at a later stage or just buy another engine

yeah, well the skids/drifts were from over excited and start doing what my original plans were, to 4x4 this thing then re body then on the road, and a new engine at the rebody stage.

again i am very thank full of all the help i was given to get this engine running. thumbs up

and again, this is not something very serious, its a back burner project. my jeep is the main project, this is just to keep my hands dirty and learn and have fun while my jeep is at panel and paint and during the summer break.

thanks again and i see where u guys are coming from too

reality kicked in when it first started and i saw all the smoke. there went the plans of keeping this motor untill after i get a wof for it with a new body, so im just going to have this motor till i get my new body which iv semi brought along with a 1.3 sj413 engine and gearbox

but thanks alot guys for helping me in starting this old engine, that most people thought i would be able to get started

Top Job boys

i dont see why everyone is so upset ?

is it because most* of you guys thought it wouldnt start ?

or is it becasue of me doing some skids/having fun in at after starting it in over a year ?

well yes but not too hard on the engine like in the video, grass should be better,.

but i might not do that now, but try some 4x4 in the drain and paddock instead.

i think you guys are interpreting it wrong, plus the start up video the high revving was because the accelerator got jammed, that wasn't meant to happen:(

oh shit no, wont be giving it that much shit, that was the only time..

i dont see how i have fucked it ? there was no damage done to it im pretty sure, the bit in the video i was going really hard on the engine but that was the only time, warmed it up before i even revved abit.

i'll try find the rebuild stuff u mentioned

and the compression can stuff how long can i expect it to last ?

no cheap easy, fix like a oil additive or a certin type of a oil ? not something that going to fix it for good, but something that will make it alot better than what it is now or will last a bit of time maybe ?

fuck i lold at/with/at you.

good shit for getting it going. but i thought you wanted to use it as a farm hack/get it on the road with this running gear. whats the point of killing this setup(although it was already half/99% dead when you got it).

meh. do it and get vids. conrod out the block plz.

drivetrain is all good, not trying to kill it just got a tad excited when it started up that's all and called for a celebration, i hooked 3rd gear in it doing a sitter haha. but when i replace the body, the engine most likely will get replaced as I'd fail a wof with that much smoke anyway. but i do plan on keeping the motor running for a while thou

choice! so a vid of it blowing up tomorrow then?

um why ?

Is the guy driving it like 8?

haha thats me, forget to mention it had no seat, so i was sitting on the floor and i couldnt see where i was going and the rust was fucking poking into me, tomorrow i'll get a seat in there and take it out again for propper drifts skids when i can see whats going on and im not able to fall out hahha im 16 btw

will get some photos of the zip tied fan belt tomorrow morning haha

suprisingly the zip/cable ties would very good as my fan belt.

gay thing is that after say 20-30mins of fun, the oil level went real low and i got a very loud tappet noise and then i parked it up in the shed. no cheap fixes so it smokes less/ burns less oil ?

yeah of course, let it warm up cause i had to wait for the thermostat to open up so i could get rid of any air in the system and fill up with water..

hahahah guess what, it started hahaha.

and lots and lots of smoke, no fan belt, no alternator, sticky throttle hahaha

heres a start up video (not the first thou)

then we decided we wanted to rip it up, so i took it down the driveway and water came out of the radiator. dam, went home and reliased it was becasue we had no fan belt that the water pump wasnt working.

drove it into the shed, thought a bit about it, then decided trusty zip ties could be the fan belt ahahahahahah

using 3-4 zip ties we had our self a fan belt that worked.

here is a video of a couple of my mates doing some skids and have some fun. too bad right at the end we heard a real loud tappet noise (most likely due to having not much oil left after burning it all hahaha)

temp gauge works too.

im just a bit pissed of that it smokes this much hahaha, any product i can buy which will make it less smokey and/or make it burn less oil, iv heard of a few products and seen them at a few automotive store ?

nah i didnt find it at repco or supercheap. when i asked them they said it sounded doggy and i should stay away from a product like that

hahaha hooked everything up yesterday, new plugs, new oil.

connected fuel up to a bottle, and tried to fire it, after cranking it for a bit and realising it wasn't trying to fire, id thought id check if we were getting any spark at all, much to my disappointment no spark.

Opened up the distributor cap and guess what. lol there's no distributor rotor in there.

so today i check at the repco/supercheap auto stores in Hamilton to track me down a rotor. found 1 at te rapa and bought contact points too for it.

hopefully I'll put it all in tomorrow and try and crank it and *Fingers crossed it should fire into life*

brought a can of "START YA BASTARD" engine starter

diffently, just put the carb back on.

gonna put the head on tonight.

gonna try fire it up tomorrow with new engine oil/spark plugs

cleaned the engine up today.

Started to put a few things back, took the carb off to give it a clean.

gave it a crank today with the battery hooked it all up and most of the stuff works, such as all the dash lights/fan/lights.

cranked it without the sparkplugs and the valve cover to get rid of all the shit and water. then i drained out the old oil/water for the engine, the water was in there from when i cleaned the head.

heres some photos:

Cleaned the body up too and its not that bad apart from the front bumper and bonnet, but im still going to replace the whole body once the engine is up and running.

it doesnt really bother me if its smokey. its a temp engine till i replace the body, get it road legal and then a engine transplant at the end of it all.

err no just the replaceable body panels that have rusted, driveline and chassis has no rust checked it all out.

painted the rocket cover today lol.

i'll go around tomorrow and try find and buy a can of compression. and engine start stuff.

then hopfully i get compression+spark+fuel = 1 running motor with a bit of smoke
