Purchased one of the Chinese GPS speedo's that Brett purchased from eBay, looks pretty good but a little worried that it does not sit on Zero unless it needs power to zero, will see when it goes in.

Another said the standard fuel pump will be fine as SU's do not like high fuel pressure.


In my experience this is not good advice. Standard holden fuel pumps in reasonable condition give about 7psi which suits the big floats in downdraft Strombergs ...

What does this mean? If it is a true message from admin and we need to do something then show us how to do it please. I for one have no idea whether this is nonsense or serious.

You'll be right Neil. Actually a relatively easy bit to play with. I don't know if it's Thompsons, but someone makes/made repair patches that cover that whole area. Unfortunately the one that is the right size that I have left over is a drivers side. Your side one went into the yute.

Unfortunately the full patch I have is for drivers side. I do have a passenger side as per photo but from the looks of your photo you would have to add a bit to it.

Pretty sure I have a new patch panel. Just need to check if its right or left.

Anyone chasing door bits? Free to a good home if you stump up postage.

Fantastic advice there. Thanks Craig.

These?
Thanks for the tip. Unfortunately the Redline site, which is rather confusing and not too user friendly, shows them out of stock. In fact they show around half their air filter assemblies out of stock. I found them on eBay but marked up by 50%.

Maybe you do things differently in WA, but here we usually ask to visit, not tell.

I have a set of round paper element ones same height for my cd175s. They should fit your SUs.

You had your chance to see it last year and you piked.

Well. Took it for a run. I always thought people were exagerating when it comes to the difference tripple Webers make on a red six. Was I wrong!!
Finally my little worked 186 is alive. Scary fast and responsive. What a joy.

A couple of experiences to recount:
The Lynx manifold was unworkable for me ...

Not much left and both bits LHS.
