  4. Hi guys could someione please help me, I'm having trouble with the idle on my 4k. currently it is stock except for full exhaust twin carbs and extractors. The trouble i am having is that the idle will never stay at 1 point it seems to stick when i rev and then will randomly drop down when it feels like it, usually very inconvenient times. first i thought it would have been in the throttle cable or linkages but its not, then someone said it would be the dizzy balance weights, so i fully stripped, cleaned, greased and rebuilt my dizzy, now the revs don't stick as frequently but everytime i turn the idle down, when it does its random drop to what i presume it should idle at it just stalls because its too low. The idle is set for around 5-700 rpm, but it sticks at around 1200 rpm which wastes gas at the lights and pisses me off. sorry bout the long post but I'm getting real annoyed by this now. HELP MEEE!!!! Jono
  5. Cheers man, but the main info i want is how it fits onto the carby 4k, and I'm havin trouble findin that
  6. Hey guys and girls. just wondering if anyone could tell me wether a sc12 charger from a 4age can be used on a twin carbed 4k?? they goin pretty cheap at the mo and I'm keen to get one if so, could someone please tell me how it is done and even better show pictures of people who have done it??? thanks guys. Jono
  7. sweet I'm gonna check everything tonight, fingers crossed i fix it
  8. Hey all, first of all my 4k keeps misfiring at high rpm wen i stab the throttle and occasionly wont start or dies at low rpm, the dizzy cap looks pretty foul so I'm gonna get a new one tomorrow, but if not does anyone know what the points should be spaced at, my points are relatively new but may have moved. and as a second question, the vacuum advance, can someone tell me where the hose should connect, i have it connected to the dizzy and to sumwhere near the carbs, but not actually on the carbs, I'm running a stock twincarb setup, but with 4k carbs rather than the 3k ones, can someone please tell me if thge vac advancance is supposed to connect to the carbs, if so, where? any help would be appreciated, and pics would be extra helpful. Jono
  9. Hi all, i was just after some help with tuning my twincarbs, they are the stock ones off a srcoupe that i have on my 4k with extractors and exhast and full ignition system, anyway, i havent got my lumpy cam yet so i was wondering if someone could tell me the most basic way to tune them to go their hardest, 9i can fine tune) in simple talk. also i find sometimes when i accelerate hard, the revs don't drop fully , and i think its to do with the throttle return spring, is there supposed to be one on each carb, has anyone else had this prob, any help would be appreciated Cheers, jono
  10. yeah that is helpful, whats the deal with the fuel regulator?? are they expensive, where do they fit in the fuel system???
  11. just had the extractors exhaust and ignition done, so would it make much diff to that?? i want power. Also by cam work do u mean a lumpy cam??
  12. Hi all could someone please tell me if Getting twin carbs (not sidedraft) for my 4k is worth it, ive had mixed opinions on this, it is for a twin weber setup, my mechanic uncle says itll just waste gas. Also could someone please tell me how to rejet carbs suitable for a 4k preferably with pics. Thanks all
  13. Hi all, first of all i would like to say that if you cut down your gearstick make sure your gearnob will fit otherwise you hae to grind t stick thinner as happened in my ke30. Now for my question, can anyone tell me where i should look (north island nz references would be super appreciated) for an intake manifold, twin carb, sidedraft or not, cheers guys. oh and what sot of price would i be looking at.. thanks in advance
  14. yeah man thats what I'm wanting to do, or mount some kinda scoop on the carby that will pop out of the hood... does it make much of a difference to it or not really?? .. like heat and performance wise
  15. hi all, does anyone knoe about cutting vents in bonnets, to make custom airscoops, i have an idea of how to do it, but if someone could give me and idea of what tools to use ??

  23. First of all I would like to say I hope no one else has posted this topic as it is my first post..so here goes: I have a wonderful little green ke30 that i got for free (thanks granny) anyway i was curious about changing the lights in my dash to leds, could someone please tell me whether i can get a special type of LED that will fit straight into the normal bulb holder, or if i need to modify a normal dicksmith Led to fit, if so what resistors e.t.c should i use.. by the way I live in New Zealand. p.s. i have already removed the gauge cluster twice to install a 2" tacho in the clock hole, so I'm a little familiar with it
