Hey jimmy, they are Lancer caps... Kinda hard to track down in 14".. they weigh a ton. Bullet caps are a later addition, just for that extra length ya know?

Hey Ed,

Nah, no 4 link. Theres a few pics on the first couple of pictures of how it's set up.
I love your wagon too mate, very tight.

Cheers, Paul

Awesome stuff Paul, great to see the fuel issue is sorted out and the car looks a million bucks!. Where did you get the foam sock filters?? been trying to find some to put on the stacks before we drive south............

Hey Gaz,

Got them from Faber, they come in pairs which is good for you.. $30 a pair rings a bell..... I have a spare one here if you get stuck...ha
Ive actually trimmed about an inch or so off the bottom to give you an idea of size..

I think we may have spoken too soon with the fuel problem as it is still there..
It seems to be fine on nice long drives, big stretches of road, high speed, lots of air flowing etc etc...
But it still seems to be there and more apparent on low speed drives down to the coffee shop (less than 2kms) for example..

We did figure out a trick to start it, i get dad to stick his fingers down the tubes of 2 of the carbs and lift the plungers up. Apparently this is releasing some sort of pressure build up. It backfires out the top but then kicks over straight away...
This could prove difficult in dating situations when I inform the lucky lady that i need to stick 2 fingers in her to get her going......

Have got a Holley fuel regulator to see what kind of pressure we are getting in the line. Next stop could be the fancy electric business.

Any words of wisdom?

Cheers, Paul

Thanks for that Paul but who and where is Faber, did you get them via the 'net or directly from a store?
Bugger on the fuel issue...... go the electric pump and be done with it....... then you can keep your fingers for something else
