Cheerz!

Hey guys, My spark plug tubes are worn through at the plug end and no longer seal at the top because nothing is holding them down. Does anyone know part numbers or who might supply them etc. Much appreciated. heres a vid of my KE55 after powerspark ignition mod, and DIY 2 inch exhaust i welded up :P

Thanks mate

Hey banjo, my car has this capacitor mounted next to coil and also inside distributer. On photos of other ke55 s I can see they have it to . My problem is weak spark .

It connects to the negative terminal on the coil, looks similar to condenser inside the dizzy. can't find any info on it

Put a kit through the carb I recon

Only solution here is to try harder

Put a kit through the carb and cleaned up the plugs. Fixed

ok thanks,

what jets are people running on 32 36 with worked 4K?

Hey guys. I fitted a 32 36 webby (from 1.6L pinto) to my ke55. Motor is running a lumpy cam and some head porting. I'm using these settings. primary main jet = 125, air corrector = 165, idle jet = 55 secondary main jet = 130, air corrector = 160, idle jet = 50 idle screw 2 turns out. Car runs ok but when i floor it I can hear popping in the manifold like a crackling sound....... too lean?

If you have the motor out all you need to do to change rings is take off the sump and unbolt the conrods from crank . Take the head off (you prolly wanna take it to head recon place ). Then just use wooden hammer handle to tap em out. Measure the bore size and order rings to suit. If pistons look ok just reuse em . Clean them up with brush and some solvent . Good test is to put the rings into ring grooves from side. And wiggle the ring up and down if it moves too much you need new pistons if the grooves are still tight piston is prolly ok. The motor sits in a cradle type thing that runs across between the two beams. It's easy to remove just remove the nuts on each side. Then take off the gearbox cross member and gear shifter

Yeah thanks banjo. It's heaps of fun to drive now. Bodywork is still shonky but I don't care

u guys still keen? lets set a date

Little drive around the block :P

second option

I have GT 40 coil with resistor hooked up to standard points dizzy (1979 4K). It works no problem.

Ok me and my mate got it to runs heaps better by taking off the top of the air cleaner (was choking the motor alot!), played around with timing.

Its working... could it be that the acceperator pump jet is too small now to feed the motor?

I can get it to idle ok. Its when you step on the gas it hesitates runs rough then once revs get to about 1500 rpm it piks up no problems. Its that transtition from idle jet to primary

I need to sort this out, cheers altezza

it just looks like its dumping juice... i didn't change jets

heres a clip of what I'm talking about
