And the day off so had her out for an hour ,loved it , but I had forgotten how bloody uncomfortable kit cars can be over small bumps ,my backs killing me,

5mm hole 12mm od side view is a flying saucer shape

2000 pinto i always take it for granted that most run the old sierra mill

In a new head set i have just bought are 2 small almost conical in shape rubber grommets ,????? where do they fit I just carn,t figure them out ,probably something so obvious i don,t see it

thanks guys the gaps around the rad are the next job but i will need to remove the nose cone to get in just arkward to get to ,retirement is soon(end of may) so will get some time to work on her at last,so will do both jobs at once ,plus I might treat the car to a respray ,i like the mazda red metallic

hi guys ,I,m running a sierra rad at the moment but looking to up grade ,to a more efficient one ,the 3a seems to be a little short on space has anyone any recommendations,Ebay has plenty of choice at a resonable price some including an electric fan are they any good ?

The standard mechanical pump was Not fitted when I got the car ,the electric one is an eBay cheapy,it works fine but there is no adjustment so I have ordered a pressure regulator ,more to come,as soon as I fit it ,on a similar vein in my younger years I raced banger cars and always used electric fuel pump,s and they were fitted with a pressure switch that cut the power once pressure was achieved restarting again as required ,where are they now???????

the weber is new fitted by the last owner ,so i assume it is in good condition, the car has only done 2000mls since ,but work means i only get weekends to work on it .I will check today on the pump and then decide my next move ,and thanks a million guys for the advice

I will have to check on the pump type,running 32/36 dgv Weber,any recommendations for pressure regulator?

hi guy,s ,help needed ,do i need to have a pressure switch fitted to the fuel pump ,it runs constantly even on tickover,also would this cause the plugs to soot up ,they come out black even after a good blast ,I,ve adjusted the mixture screw but it seems to make little difference ,there is a ramair air filter fitted and the choke is fully open ,the timing is spot on ,new distributer ,plugs and leads I,m at a loss.and in case you haven,t noticed it,s almost summer ,I need to get back on the road but be a little quicker this year

I have bought a newman high torque cam to install over the winter my question is fit the standard head or an injection one I,m running a weber carb ,and both heads have been polished up and the valves reseated I,m not too bothered about top end speed but the grunt to power out of corners and maybe drift it a little ,yhanx in advance gent,s

Can you measure their width at the bottom 3a are narrow

I should be OK as I only live 10 miles away 99% sure

I had to go a little close to the kerb to avoid a caravan and found a pothole which the rear shocker couldn't deal with ,in fact it caused it to snap frightened me half to death ,has anyone got a pair for sale asap , I'm going to try and get the council to pay for the repairs ,but I need my kit fix

I had a nightmare trying to remove mine to wrap it take steering shaft out of the way and expand the hole ,But I made a strengthening plate to fit afterwords

Can you measure the width of the seat at its widest I, have a 3a and it's only 19in max room

Hi Chris, I would like 100 for it ,that's what I payed ,if you decide to buy it I will meet you at meadow hall to save costs all round

I have a head it,s stripped down ready for porting but haven't had chance to start it yet , all the valves, springs, followers, etc are all there ,let me know if you are interested

I bought some from rymotor China for a Kawasaki z1000 in chrome for £26 including postage they look the business

But is that enough to cause the problems even the radio only just lights up

My little toy died on the day before I took her off the road for winter, I had a short blast and it wouldn't restart,so recharge the battery and start looking for an earth fault everything seems ok but the battery is only reading 10.2 volts could this be the problem?

After checking just about everything it has turned out to be the simplest , the wheel studs were standard length so only 8 mm or so were holding the wheel on replaced them with 13 mm over length and I can now brake hard with crapping myself ,

Thank you gentlemen much appreciated

Somehow I have managed to lose mine and these cars do not seem to run very far without one anybody got a spare ASAP.of course i will pay plus postage ,many thanks in advance

Now I am definitely confused. The injector head has a definite curve in the inlet passage surely those will restrict the flow , I have taken some photos of the 2 as a comparison ,now to try and upload them,bare with me on this as me and computers have a love hate relationship. the file is too large
