Re: A Kiwis Series 3
Thanks guys! It was very slow progress over winter without a unit/garage! But I'm getting there now.
September I think?
Let me know if you'd like any pictures of anything in particular! Mine is still all apart
Who knows what might happen in the next month or two aye! We might be allowed out
Yeah the elbow and throttle body got a VERY good clean out after that crap!
Don't worry about that! This is all work I have done since aaaages ago!rotarypower wrote: ↑Sun May 17, 2020 7:17 pm Some excellent work there!
Making me feel bad for slacking now haha.
September I think?-

Re: A Kiwis Series 3
So close. Hoping to get the diff set up with the help of a friend over the next week or so. Then it'll just be install it all back on the car! I will post a proper update once its back on
Ordered some new gilmer belts as I have gone EWP and needed a shorter belt. Had a leaking fuel hose when I primed my pumps. The quality of fuel hose on the market is so dangerous
. 2 completely different hoses I have had to replace. Both 1 year old (8mm and AN6). Decent stuff also! Made up a new hose. Managed to start it up for the first time since around September. Lots of 2 stroke burning off . Premixed quite a lot also. No idle control either, but that doesn't matter after 30 seconds haha. Revving up to about 4500 or so.
