Thanks,
So i have it currently set up like the image below that i believe is the same as one of the diagrams.
The real question is will it be fine set up like this or do i need an expansion tank added? if so then where? T off the Red hose or Inline/T off the Yellow?
Hi All,
I have recently stripped out my old radiator and pipework to change it for something that fits better. The new red is mounted and the pump and thermostat replaced.
Now I need to sort the pipework! does anyone have diagrams of locations in the system for the expansion tank and if its needed.
The engine is a 2L pinto.

this suggests its 3/8 BSP
You might have to use a straight barb fitting as there might not be clearance to thread a 90deg elbow in.

I want to replace my old radiator and pipework for something that fits a bit better.
Does anyone have pics of theirs and suggestions on new radiators that fit nicely as well as do a good job.

Hi All,
I have recently swopped out my old electronic distribution unit that I believe was an old Sierra one for a Bestek one.
Everything is working great but now the tachometer does not give a reading. There were a few additional wires that were going into the old plug so I don't know if disconnecting those has caused the issue.
Any ideas how to solve this or where to start?
Cheers
The carbs were reconditioned and setup to go back on a bike. What Jet size are people using.
I have them fitted and they are running. the Fuel pump is from the same bike so the fuel pressure should be good
Hi All,
I have a set of reconditioned R1 Carbs that i will be fitting to my 2.0 Pinto. does anyone have any advice or tips on basic setup? I will send it off for professional tuning but would like to get it as close as i can first.
Cheers
