did some module swapping thought I had it : ran longer than usual (like 20 seconds or so) then did the die-ing thing https://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/threads/sbc-starts-stops-starts-up.964488/ Suggests coil : next thing to try i Guess ran fuel line into a milk bottle has heaps & doesn't stop had a look at the racecar setup : slightly different thought about robbing that
-
both 'blown' resistors were OEM / 40 years old but yep I'm wondering the same thing I'll check alt (if i can in the short time it runs) Or remove & pop in a lathe etc see if we can get some figures keen to have a good think & look before I go changing too much (can revert back to the Points Dizzy easliy enough but that not the "point" eh) have a couple spare Modules will also try them (making sure to ground them) will also check lights & stuff everything was 'normal' before it Shut down on way to Palmy Meet
-
I'm not sure about anything that's why I havent touched it basic history is I removed the Points & condensor unit & replaced it with the complete kit from @mark105's Dad & have been running it for a few years now Fitted it Oct 2017 only had issues when it blew the 1st resistor block earlier this year (High Ohm side dead) this original Post / thread then again recently and replaced with a new unit & since then not worked
-
@Avenga might be able to help, and have input on wether its a cert item or not to run Pins only and remove latch
-
Found a couple of Controllers to try / House stuff meant no time in shed over weekend, though I did manageto gather a few photo's for more info and as the Dizzy is one of these I've been highly recomended not to try the 12v link as suggested above [something along the lines of frying inductor sensor pickup or Ignition module?
-
yes that's always been the clue for me something electrickery isnt talking and it cant 'throw a code' @yeah yeah na just suggested that, will give it a go on weekend
-
Thanks for the replies guys (only just seen) they're $100 new? couple of clips 1st at Idle 2nd givign it some just odd Fills a glass full of fuel pretty quick, I reckon its got heaps of gas, seems to just cut out in same time frame every time
-
5 or 6? Left a trail
-
yep thanks came as a complete kit & was all swapped over "was running when parked" nothing changed & sulking at moment, might try changing the CDI unit, same as one of these (not sure if 5 or 4 pin sorry) likely be 5 pin from research on the net (twin coil Ballast) (have not been near car for a while nor will be till Monday ish

oh yeah & these, I make these they sometimes come back for repair with Price tags attached over $1100, I've made 18 in the last year alone, & they've been a NWC product since early 2000's... one of our Higher end Products -
no advance plate, its a Electronic (with optical pickup) dizzy from a 78+Avenger same as a Valiant / Chrysler setup Well away no pics isnt handy I'll try do better next week (bit trickey from home pc, work easier)
-
how would I test / check that? given it runs for a bit & all i've changed is the resistor I keep coming back to that as the 'fault' but there's not much to go wrong there either it did get frikking hot when I left ign on testing yesterday & burnt myself on it
-
nah Electronic ign / doesnt have one, hah yeah scratching head at moment all I can put it down too is the resistor at moment, ran when 'parked' heaps fuel (pulled lined off today & such) runs a chysler / Valiant
-
Had the second hand Res Block fail while driving to Palmy Meet Have replaced with a brand new unit Now car only runs for 3 or 4 seconds then dies (seems same time limit weather Idling or reving Appears Electrical ie not fuel related Has anyone experienced something like this & got any tips?
-
Ok Bolted / Plugged it in and car runs for about 3 seconds and dies, no matter how many revs it gets electrical seems to cut out odd
-
wonder how many $15 Parts there are that can stop a car.... Got 2x CBR43's, just in case & you know, that will mean I will NEVER need the second one... under $30 from my local parts store vs $20 ea from Trademe Diagram from the 'Haynes' and with the Multi-meter I'm recording 2~ Ohm & 5~ Ohm will that be an issue, or have I got the wrong units? appears to be the only part 'new' available https://www.sparesbox.com.au/partsearch?query=Fuelmiser Ballast &type=products it would be a shame to pop it in & find the "next" vulnerability after-all! there's not specs on these here : https://shopping.rewardia.com.au/Ignition_System_Ballast_Resistor_Fuelmiser_CBR41?pk=zm&pi=1330129663 and an Ebay advert for the above (Mopar Discontinued) Part# P4529795 says

there's also a lot of new users here possibly not on the group chat too bit more bumpage / in your face & people might remember too

hop on www.willtheyfit.com for wheel sizes & correcting stuff

Deja vu Didn't quite make last Weeks Palmy OS meet (by 1.2km) was still home by 9pm I had forgotten about my AA Plus Membership until someone offered theirs for me to 'use' hah

at this stage contact the Trellis Outdoor Centre in Tauranga, they are the first Heat pump boxes I've seen with my Panels (or any local handy man / Trellis manufacturer should be able to "knock one up") "someone" might make a killing in a Large City buying & up-selling my Panels eh (I'm still under 5x Auckland area Stores) only the Ply Fern portion is my creation / responsibilty, I've been trying to sell (or make contact) to shops all over NZ and it still a slow process, even with a nation wide rep for the past 12months Mitre 10 Mega Hamilton sent back their order (didn't want to create an account for a "Small order") vs Dunedin that ordered 2x Pallets of Panels in Feb (sorry didnt come here to derail or interupt the thread with my issues hah) Another! -

to save the OS bandwidth I use Imgur as much as possible Nice box too! here's a couple more 'boxes' (which I did not construct but did have a hand in) starting to gain traction slowly -
all good yeah thought I saw the truck roll past & nah sweet as, not much you could have done Avenger Parts man over by Racecourse didn't have the bit anyway Brent with the Honda City offered to come get but same again didnt want towie to turn up to empty car I got home bout 9

I did my best to attend but was cut short by about 1.5km with a dead Ballast resistor (again, I'll buy new this time) and I dunno about cops, but I understand the Plaza Security did not appreciate the 'gathering' this time
