dfunkt Posted September 9, 2008 Report Share Posted September 9, 2008 PS. anyone know how to access the bolts easier on the Dellorto manifold other than spanners and ratchets? the area is just ridiculously tight to work in....there must be an easier way..... Cheers Mitchelli. there's only one way....an open ended spanner. make yourself a custom one by shortening it so you can get a fair bit of arc on it and use something to help you get some force behind it. (i hope that made sense) dF Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mitch4397 Posted September 19, 2008 Author Report Share Posted September 19, 2008 (edited) Got my car back from the dudes at auto electrical. Ignition switch turned to be fine, turns out the problem was a disconnected cable of some sort. The car was also sparking with a weak voltage. So that's all fixed now and now fires up first time every time. Had to use my mates car to tow mine using some dodgy connection... :o was not fun! The dellorto's are working but are in need a tune! (link for vid below) booked in for the 29th. In the mean time its off the road as i don't really want to drive it around as it runs like crap. ive borrowed my mates XF LPG ute. Bit of a beast... :y: super smooth tho. Now on uni holidays have some things to i want to do to the car.. Youtube of Carbies: 4k Dellorto DHLA Mitch.

RollaBus_4agze Posted September 26, 2008 Report Share Posted September 26, 2008 Wow that rocker cover looks sweet as mate! What method did you use to get it like that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taz_Rx Posted September 26, 2008 Report Share Posted September 26, 2008 Just like painting, its all in the prep work getting it smooth. You can polish pitted alloy, but it looks like 'polished pitted alloy'. 1200 wet FTW!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
