Sounds like i got some fun to be had haha.

Yeah i was thinking earth, but where is the damn earth? I had a good look yesterday...and i suck at reading wiring diagrams....

I've noticed in my KE36 Panel Van (since i first got it), that i can put my right indicator on and the light flashes but when i put my left one on, it doesnt flash on the dash, but it still works. There is also the fact that my fuel gauge isnt working 100% either. So yesterday, Faulksy does pretty much all the work of installing my stereo into the PV and after I left to go up to his place last night before we went out, the left indicator light was flashing on the dash and the fuel gauge was actually registering. What are your thoughts? What could be the cause of it to suddenly start working and then the next time I get in the car it isnt? Thanks in advance Mick

As if he'd wanna post pics of his wrecked car....

Piece of piss to replace dude. Make sure you got less than 1/4 of a tank, otherwise you'll need something to catch the fuel that runs out when u undo it. Removal 1. Undo the 2 screws that hold the cover on. 2. Disconnect the fuel sender wire. Make sure you note which part of the plug it connects into 3. Undo the 5 or 6 screws that hold the sender unit in. 4. Gently maneuvre(sp?) the sender unit out. 5. Pry off cover (you don't need to bend the tabs) 6. Bend the thin piece of metal towards the resistor (coiled wire) 7. Replace cover, making sure that the tabs are tight when it goes back on. Installation is the reverse of Removal from steps 4 to 1. Let me know how you go.

Knocking coud be piston slap. a 4AC i had did that pretty bad. haha.

Just replaced the sender unit in my panel van and its worse than what the original one was. :P So i popped the cover off the moving part and bent the tab over that rubs against the resistor and it seems to be working stacks better now. I'll let you know how i go. Mick

I'm pretty sure that car isnt running dude....

That's not cool. I hope she was insured....and i hope you're ok. Claim on that neck injury for sure. If i come across a car, I'll let you know.

Lol, yes well, that EE80 doesnt handle too well! Though after driving it myself I know i can now trust you in it!

Being a passenger in the car that previously had this engine in it, i was quite scared.....haha.

Very sexual!

Change your dash cluster. My temp gauge never worked until i changed the cluster. Just make sure you add your original speedo back into the cluster when you swap it over as to keep the original K's on it. Other than that, if your temp gauge works fine afterwards but the fuel gauge doesnt, then change the fuel sender unit in your fuel tank.

As requested, a picture of my dash. Note: 5 Digits on odometer.

Thats a KE55 dash dude :) Not a KE30. :P

I'll get a pic of mine tomorrow and post it up. cos mine only has 5 :) and thats a KE55 speedo, not a KE30. KE30 didnt have raised numbers :P

Good thing about the KE30 odometer is that it only has 5 digits, not 6, so once it gets to 99,000k's, it goes back to all zero's anyway.

I use a club lock. Wont stopa professional theif though unfortunately.

I could have a perve tomorrow before band rehearsal if you like....

Or an AE80 if it had the 2A variant :wink:

Haha, nup. That's yor car scotto! But people didnt believe me when i said it had a 2E in it.

This is an EE80. It looks like a a normal AE82 hatch, except with 2 doors. Front of the EE80. The Front bar is an FX-GT style front bar. The side shot shows it has 2 doors, yes, thats right 2 DOORS. The back shows a GL badge. Wooo.....exciting haha. Interior shot and door trim shot. What's that!? Its a 2E Engine! 1.3L powerhouse! The part of the VIN that says its an EE80. I hope that's informative for everyone and that yes, they do exist! These cars were a strict import and you don't see all that many of them around.

I spoke to dale (one of the mechanics that worked on your car) on Saturday and he said that it was pumping out a lot of oil out of the breather. You didnt happen to get this car from someone in Mawson Lakes at all did you Lesley? Good to see it'll be fixed under warranty though :wink:

Yup, what teddy said. A guy that was selling parts on here when i had my KE55 had a twin aisan carb manifold with carbs. I think he wanted something like $250 for it. I don't know if thats a good price or not though and that was about 9 months ago.

Yep its an old school Corolla Sprinter manifold. Comes with the 3K-B engines if i recall correctly. Pretty sure KE15 Sprinters had 'em. Felix would know a bit more about them i'd say.
