  11. I know of this panelvan. i was just over that way 45 mins ago, i didnt even take notice of it.
  12. Anyone know what the story is with the ke30 2 door on newman road, wavell heights? The one that has been rear ended, side swiped and by the looks of it its still rego'd. And also spotted the fine specimen of a ke36 panel van on robinson road west at geebung, noticed both for quite some time now, cheers phatke30!

  14. Just so we don't confuse the poor bloke, there will be only a cable, cheers phatke30!
  15. ^^^^^^^True, i never looked at it in that aspect, if that were to be the case maybe brake adjustment could compensate? @ sammo, best way would be to measure the piston and go from there, then you would be able to order the correct parts, cheers phatke30!
  16. I always thought that the ke3x and ke5x ran all the one type of wheel cylinders, even with the jap diff and the borgy. When you say 19mm/20mm, you mean the piston diametre? 1mm shouldn't make a difference should it? The pistons only push on the brake shoe's, in my opinion i wouldn't think that it would make a difference, just my 2 cents, cheers phatke30!
  17. You need to swap over the flexplate/flywheel and clutch, cheers phatke30!

  24. Ke36 & 38 vans had the vinyl, ke36 & 38 wagons had the carpet, cheers phatke30!
  25. There is one thing if i may suggest john, after reading the thread, obviously i can lean more towards a fuel problem, not too much can go wrong with electronic dizzy's. You say when you put the foot down is when lolla misbehaves at her worst? Just a suggestion, in my opinion i'd unbolt the carby from the manifold and pull the top off of it and have a look at the bottom of the fuel bowl. The secondary throat jet is positioned at the bottom of the bowl. If there were to be foreign materials sitting in the bottom of the bowl and disrupting the fuel feed to the secondary throat, this possibly could cause lolla to "chug", "cough" or "splutter" when the throttle is wide open with the engine under load. don't stress, the factory carby's are basic, if you do decide to pull the top off, just remember to check the float level as well, Also at the same time, check the idle needle as well (long barstard). Spray carby cleaner in all aspects of the carby to remove (if any) the crap. When bolted back on the engine, a good starting point (in my opinion) for the mixture screw is 3 turns out, and go from there. Also recheck timing. Hope this can put some light on the subject for you john, cheers phatke30! ps. Don't forget to replace the base carby gasket when doing this!
