Chillin Posted January 4, 2014 Report Share Posted January 4, 2014 Hey all, Long time no post, but I'm back in a rolla after about 2 years on the dark-side. I recently purchased a KE70 as a slow project for myself and brother / weekend car for myself. Breakdown: 1984 slant front Toyota White recent home spray job ( Pretty good job) 5 speed 300k's sloppy diff Shot carby interior not in the best shape Not drivable in current condition Reasonable price The Plan: Fix it up nice and cleanly. Some nice wheels, Suspension and brakes. RWC then Rego! Not keen on going way over the top like my last rolla. I know next to nothing about the xE7x's as I'm more of a 55 man so ill be asking questions! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B.L.Z.BUB Posted January 4, 2014 Report Share Posted January 4, 2014 Saw this for sale. Looks quite tidy. If you need a diff I have an S series diff you can have when i pull it out, but that wont be till the end of January. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B.L.Z.BUB Posted January 4, 2014 Report Share Posted January 4, 2014 It has two spare axles and a spare locked center too. The locked center needs a pinion seal though. I'll let you know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chillin Posted January 4, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 4, 2014 So sorted the carby out, primary jet was flooding fuel i to the port. Replaced the carby and the car still struggled to take throttle without killing the engine. Timing was also out around 15 degrease so i chirped it up to around 10 advanced, but it pinged under load. Ran out of time last night as neighbours were not to happy about tuning a KE at 10:30 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
altezzaclub Posted January 5, 2014 Report Share Posted January 5, 2014 What fuel did it ping on?? 91 or 95?? Did you check what the max advance went out too?? I'd think they would take 10deg or 15 even, without a problem, maybe it is advancing too fast or too much with something broken in the bottom of the dizzy. neighbours do get funny like that...

Chillin Posted January 5, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 5, 2014 TBH i just guessed how many degrees it was so may not be exact haha, its on 91, my old 4k ran sweet when the dizzy clip was right above the adjustment bolt so i just did the same. You have been a god send altezza, read through all the carby posts and diagrams to get her running Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
