Hi There,

I just had great success with the KBS tank repair kit relining my tank. Also when you put in your gasket use a fuel resistant gasket dressing, this will help even out any unevenness in the surfaces and improve the seal. Personally I ditched the cork gasket and went with a fuel tolerant ...

I have put the KBS System through my tank with great success, no more fuel smell in the boot and cabin. I had to drill out a couple of the screws on the fuel sender, so I put new threads in the lot, sealed it up with a gasket maker thats fuel resistant.

Rod.

Anyone know the thread size of this little bolt, I have accidentally cross threaded it and need to clean it up with a tap.

Hi Guys,

Is is OK to put the KBS or POR15 through my EK tank? The fuel pickup is soldered in and cannot be removed, if it has a strainer I'm tipping the POR15 will block it up, if there is no strainer am I good to go?


Cheers,
Rod.

Bit of a dumb question, but do any of you have any tips on turning the engine by hand to find the timing mark. I have been using a spanner on the front pulley, however there is not a lot of room in the engine bay so I can only turn a few degrees at a time. Any clever ideas to make this easier ...

Hello All,

My old girl idles a little rough, I have adjusted the idle to 520RPM and have been playing with the idle fuel mixture. The shop manual says that vacuum at idle should be between 17 and 21 in. hg. however I cannot get it up 15 in. or so. Any tips?

Cheers,
Rod.

Hey guys,

I manual has also been stalling at the light when warm. I have upped the idle speed to 520RPM, now I'm trying to adjust my idle mixture screw and tip on doing this without burning my hand?

My interior rear view mirror is crazed, does anyone know if its possible to replace the glass?

Rod.

Anyone have any idea of what this vinyl pattern is called and where to find some?
