Transom Posted August 24, 2016 Share Posted August 24, 2016 I saw a T bucket that had pipes running from both rocker covers into the exhaust collectors for the crank case ventilation Venturi effect to pull vacuum from the rocker cover pcv ? Seems like a harder solution but certainly an out of the box idea 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cletus Posted August 24, 2016 Share Posted August 24, 2016 That is called a vac-u-pan system, been around since KY wore nappies. Relies on venturi effect in the exhaust to suck fumes into the exhaust, usually a drag car thing. Not sure how well it would work in a road car 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raizer Posted August 24, 2016 Share Posted August 24, 2016 That is called a vac-u-pan system, been around since KY wore nappies. Yeah, sounds like it was a mission to install into the exhaust ports too Looks like just catching a ride was hard enough in those days. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RUNAMUCK Posted September 4, 2016 Share Posted September 4, 2016 I came across this post on another forum http://datsun1200.com/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?topic_id=68619&forum=1 Straight up can a nazi police officer with a bad attitude roll you for this? Is it in the WOF manual? DAFUQ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nominal Posted September 4, 2016 Share Posted September 4, 2016 It is certainly not a wof requirement in NZ. You need a selection indicator for an auto for cert IIRC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cletus Posted September 4, 2016 Share Posted September 4, 2016 for cert, an auto must indicate what gear is selected, so not just a diagram of the shift pattern, it has to show what gear it is in, like a factory vehicle, as well as having a functional inhibitor swtch to stop it being started in gear. this has been hammered into us at training, due to an accident at a testing station fairly recently, one of the inspectors started the car in gear and squashed another inspector, and killed him. https://vehicleinspection.nzta.govt.nz/__data/assets/pdf_file/0005/56039/WoF-news-22-March-2016.pdf manwell has no requirement for any sort of instructions though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldrx7 Posted September 4, 2016 Share Posted September 4, 2016 Old quote, I did a search for seat belt stuff and this seems to be the most relevant to my question . if it was built before 31/10/1979 then it doesnt need any belts in the back. if the center rear belt has factory anchorages (ie belts were a factory option) then you should be right, if not then it would need cert. or take it out So if my car is a 1977, if the back seat had seat belts (pretty sure I can see the mounting anchorages). Do I need them in for a WOF? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cletus Posted September 4, 2016 Share Posted September 4, 2016 re registering a trailer i assume its easy and not that expensive anybody done it and kept the black plates? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoKer Posted September 4, 2016 Share Posted September 4, 2016 are are you.. are you asking a question in the thread you're supposed to be the keeper of? & yea nah doubt it, you might be able to apply to P-Plates to get the old one & just rock it (similar to getting og black plates on a Car) on other hand I dont think they drop off the system for a few years / 2 I think, as in you do not need to put trailers on hold similar to Classic cars (40 years) Though I did buy a frame with an old black plate & at the time (2007 ish) I was told no its dead, get new plate /ling 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yowzer Posted September 4, 2016 Share Posted September 4, 2016 Don't even need the trailer with you when you rereg it. Just jot it down as a 2016 and roll 3 year wofs. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiRge Posted September 4, 2016 Share Posted September 4, 2016 My brand new trailer has black plates, just grabbed the plates from the old shitter and re-registered the new one (Y) 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MRWEST Posted September 5, 2016 Share Posted September 5, 2016 I wonder if its the same in that you can apply to run the OG black plates if they are off the vehicle that has been deregistered? Can for cars, dunno about trailer though. Question. If a car didn't come out factory with front seat belts (1959) and and has no factory mounting points in the pan for front seat belts when it comes to getting a VIN does it then need to have front belts fitted which in turn meets fitting plates and getting a Low volume for it? Not my car but just asking for someone. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure, but Cert process may require retractors? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cletus Posted September 5, 2016 Share Posted September 5, 2016 Nah cert only requires what the wof virm says, so statics would be OK. Can get an exemption for having to have a lap and diagonal belt if there is no b pillar or if it's too small/weak 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
