ok but say its a thrash bus would the diff last if i just replace bearings?

I have a very winy diff, like to the point where its abrasive sound, I'm thinking bearings shagged, is it as simple as sliding the axle out of the diff bearing removing the cap and the diff bearing falls off then i replace the bearing and all is sweet?

Hey mate, i recently put a 32 32 on my std 4k, i suggest getting a 2 inch system on it asap after you put your carb on, i got a custom job done for like 600 extractors and a high flow muffler (for the back pressure), with your carb i suggest slap her on and see how it runs, tune accordingly. Google stuff about tuning carbs there are some useful articles you can find, idle jets run up to about 2000- 2500 then the mains kick in and up around i think 5000t to 6000 the air correctors kick in. blowing shit out the exhaust, spluttery and when throttle is applied sluggish rev gain then its too rich. revvy but running hot, and sometimes a higher idle too lean, that is most dangerous can shag your engine quick smart, better to run slightly rich for safety sake. for working out what jets are what google for a blown image of your carbie with labels and you should be able to work out idle, mains and air correctors from that. it can take a while to tune but once you know its on its obvious how a little tuning can change an engines characteristics. primary i'm running 55 idle, 135 main and 165 air, secondary is quite similar, you will also need to play with your mixture screw. hope this helps

Thanks, umm is that the one where there is no risk of misfiring and catastrophe

Thanks heaps guys, i like the tacho idea a lot

Hey i'm thinking of putting a rev limiter on my 4k, how hard is it and what is involved, disy and stuff like that?

how does just those 2 things improve fuel economy that drastically?

Hey all i have just purchased a 32/32 weber, does anyone have an install diagram for a 32/32 weber carb, or know where i can find those diagrams or soem intructions on which hoses go where etc. Thanks

thanks guys appreciate it

It burns very little oil as its a recon engine, its still quite tight

ok so i should use a blend not a straight mineral oil or what?

I have a stock 4k, just wondering which would be the best oil to use i read somewehre 30w would be good or is it better to use a semi synthetc like a 20w15 or something silly like that Cheers guys

muffler putty?

Well i actually would like the whole book, and if you were going to scan the whole thing that would be great, all i want it for is to do some engine work, cam, head work etc. but thats fine,

I have a problem i get static on my radio whenever applying brakes and when i turn the windscreen wiper on, the brake is hooked up with the parkers as well as the brake lights but that shouldnt effect it, maybe a unsheathed antenna wire?
