4A-Foottotheboards Posted November 9, 2018 Author Report Share Posted November 9, 2018 (edited) I have ordered a 50mm Vac gauge, on Amazon, and wonder if any of you have had success with carb tuning - using the 'high mercury' vac indication for setting up.. ? https://goo.gl/images/iSdXff Which part of the carb vac-pipe connection did you tap into..? 4A-F Edited November 9, 2018 by 4A-Foottotheboards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4A-Foottotheboards Posted November 21, 2018 Author Report Share Posted November 21, 2018 ..... there is a vacuum tap-off pokes straight out of the inlet manifold - facing my bulkhead - and will give steady vac. The dizzy is 'ported vac' so not steady for full range required. Gauge should be here over next few days.... Really looking forward to some timing & carby tinkering 4A-F Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

4A-Foottotheboards Posted December 17, 2018 Author Report Share Posted December 17, 2018 Just fitted Ring +130 H4 bluey bulbs. Nice sharp, bright lamp... Not driven on 'outback' style black stretches thus far but, I will wager these are a noticable improvement on what was in >> Good Good 4A-F Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

4A-Foottotheboards Posted February 24, 2019 Author Report Share Posted February 24, 2019 (edited) I robbed a part out of an MR2 column stalk to fix my own 'turn flasher' switch. The indicator had been Bzz Bzz Bzzzz - but not flashing - on right turn, so I stripped the switch apart and found the little slider worn smooth... Swapped fresh MR2 slider in and reassembled my dash. Great fix... No parts exist(cheep£££) so it has to be spares/robbed. 4A-F Edited February 24, 2019 by 4A-Foottotheboards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I drink a fair amount of it 😂 it's in a few bottle shops near me. Actually tastes like beer and not water like great northern etc.. Oldies give you a bit of shit for drinking it however.

Those wheels suit the sedan shape perfectly. I'd love a sedan that shape with a 20v in it. Edited March 1, 2019 by kickn5k 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
