    Xf EST issues

    Any idea where I’d be able to get a new Hall effect sensor for it? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Xf EST issues

    Happened to me once while cruising on a cool day. shut off came back to me 5 minutes after it shut off. Last time just shut off randomly while idling for a little while. Happened to me once after leaving my driveway around the corner from my house. Not too positive it’s heat related but might just change it anyways. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Xf EST issues

    Hi all. Having some issues with my 1992 xf Ute. It’s running and EST dizzy system (no module on the side of dizzy, and map sensor on the fire wall). It will just stop running out of no where. Happened to me twice while driving both st random stages, but now seems to be happening more frequently. It doesn’t idle rough and still pulls strong through its rev range. Like I said it just turns off randomly, both while driving and idling. Any one able to shed some light onto what my issues might be. Thanks. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    I literally left them on the car when I took the borg Warner out for the nine inch so save way round.

    9inch into xe

    Did a bit more mucking around under the car. I’ve got the car sitting pretty low, hence my issue with it hitting the fuel tank strap mount. Just moved the tank strap mount point back to help with clearance. I’ve got another set of wattslink arms that I’m gona angle the ends on so they sit straight. See where I’m at once that’s done. Thanks for the information fellas.

    9inch into xe

    Hi All. I’m putting a 9inch into my xe falcon and have a couple of questions about fitment. Got the diff all together and have decided to throw it under the car tonight. After throwing it in I’ve noticed that my watts link arms come bent after the watts link is fully seated onto the diff. I’ve also noticed that if I jack the diff up into the car the watts link eventually hits the tank strap mounting point which ends up in the middle of the car. Just curious to know for those who have done this conversion, how they got around these issues. Thanks a lot for time fellas

    3.3 running issues

    Latest update on this issue in my xe. put a dizzy which had Minimal play into today. Car runs 100% better and like a clock again. Comparing This dizzy to the one that was in it worlds of difference. Original dizzy had a lot of play in it which was probably majority of my problem. thanks for everyone’s help. Hope this helps anyone in the future.

    3.3 running issues

    Nah fuel filter is brand new. Checked tdc by taking number one spark plug out and putting a screw driver down it. Tdc matched what the screw driver was doing. The motor ran fine and didn’t carry on when I did get it going for the minute it did run. however. after a bit of kicking around a mechanic friend of mine got the car going. He pulled apart the dizzy and gave it a once over. The cars done 500+ thousand ks so it looked fairly ugly in there. The cars running however the dizzy is temperamental and will run normal then run terrible, as the car ran and drove fine then out of no where just starts to break up like it’s running out of spark. I’m getting my hands on another distributor soon and will see if that improves my situation.

    3.3 running issues

    I’ve got plenty of fuel Down the carbie. Even thrown heaps of start ya barastard down the carbie as the cars cranking. The solenoid does sound like it’s working as I take that wire on and off. also no fuel leaks I’ve checked for that to

    3.3 running issues

    I’ve tried a known working coil but still no good. I’ll try a new one and give that ago. The spark off the coil currently on there looked good. Even spark at the plug looked strong.

    Yes buddy it’s me who bought the pullys off you. Nothing wrong with the rotor cap I’ve checked that. I’ve put directrix grease under the module as well. ive pulled the plugs out and they seem dry for the amount of fuel they should be getting.

    3.3 running issues

    Hi all. Have owned my 84 xe s pack for six months now and has ran like a clock ever since I’ve owned it,( 3.3 crossflow four speed single rail). She’s done 500,000 ks and still going strong..... until the other day when I drove it into my garage, put it on jack stands and commenced my power steering conversion. After getting it all together I go to start the car and it continuously cranks but will not fire up. ive changed the dizzy and the coil for a known working one and still no luck. I’m getting fuel down the carb and spark at the plugs. I’ve even got a new module for the dizzy that’s helped give it a Stronger spark but still not helping it go. I’ve checked to see if the motor is at TDC and it is. No signs that it’s skipped a tooth on the timing chain either. ive ran a positive straight to the coil to rule out voltage drop issues however it has not helped the situation. Even tried another key barrel to rule out the contacts being bad. ive got the car to run for a total of 30 seconds however it dies slowly, and while running’s it ran as it normally would no signs of issues. And since then no more luck. at this stage when I swing the dizzy left and right it almost wants to go however it will not. I’ve thrown almost half a can of start your barstard down the carb to make sure fuel isn’t an issue. However no luck. It’s got everything it needs to go however it won’t. the motor ran fine with no signs of issues before I decided to put power steering on it. Does not make any sense why it dosent want to go it has everything it needs for it to go. anyone able to help me out thanks.
