JoKer Posted July 19, 2019 Author Share Posted July 19, 2019 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 Quote 1.2 OHMS PRIMARY 5.0 OHMS SECONDARY/AUXILLIARY SUITS VALIANT ALL MODELS WITH ELECTRONIC IGNITION REPLACES OEM 3656199 / 3874767 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoKer Posted July 20, 2019 Author Share Posted July 20, 2019 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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoKer Posted September 5, 2019 Author Share Posted September 5, 2019 (edited) alrighty it was a bit of a Saga & I'm sure OS is sick of hearing about it (waasnt really much anyone could do without physically looking at it & I didn't help much) we checked everthing else, fuel, diaphragms, sparks, wirings... then On 19/07/2019 at 13:28, JoKer said: see that wire #5? I didn't have that (it never has) car goes good now & may explain the dead resistors too Edited September 6, 2019 by JoKer 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
