Pretty sure they do. they do the same with the windsor mounts.

Thats not a bloody Prius in the yard is it?

Hey what you do in your own time is up to you!

Did you at least whip the diff hat off and check the fluid inside?

Time to be inventive with the throttle cable and work with what you have young Fella.

Or the embarrassment of having those poxy chaser rims on!

So as many of you know i have swapped out the crap loader gear box for a built c4. Since doing this i am starting to have an issue with the starter motor not engaging or something and Lucy being a little bitch to start. You can here the starter turning over but not engaging the ring gear. There is no clashing or grinding just the sound of the motor spinning. If i stick my foot out the car and rock her back and forth a bit in neutral it usually engages and starts. Can anyone enlighten me as to the most likely cause.

Ive noticed on Fleecebay that they advertise some of the starter motors as Automatic only. I assume this means the throw out is a different length on them.

Will fit the eb. E.g. maybe with some brake line mods but I think e.g. had larger brake rotors. Won't fit au.

The starter did have a spacer which I removed before fitting.

Flexplate was like new, gear in excellent condition. I should really recheck the mounting bolts i guess. Might pull the starter out and check everything this weekend as its gicing me the shits.

Yes take advice. I nearly lost my thumb on one. I used thick cable ties to tie off the next ones i did.

Weird. I just bolted mine in and it worked straight off.

Same as the ones I have. Mine are chrome of course. Mine work ok. Charges as round 14.5 ish from memory.

Single wire alternator? Internally or externally regulated?

Brake lines the same to.

Yes it d oes fit as I have done it

Nice work on the engine, could have done with a polished sump! Nice clear photos to.

No but I have often thought about them. Be interested to see if others have used them.

You been reading my project threads again?

My ex brother in law had one of these eskys with a warm 1600 and downdraught weber. It used to go like a scalded cat BUT it was plagued with fuel starvation issues for months. Long story short when the goose tipped a bottle of metho in the tank to clear out moisture he unknowingly dropped the lid seal in the tank. every time he gave it a bootfull it would suck the seal down on to the fuel outlet and block fuel flow.

Might be easier just to find an eseries LSD and do the popular conversion.

Theres been a couple in SA for sale for some time now.

I just used VHT gloss caliper paint, no priming required. Been on 2 years now, no chipping and still shines like a mutherfucking diamond!

sorry im out. My XG is on a holiday and i just checked and have no photos of that area.
