 if i can do it

im shocking with wiring too i just have no interest in it but i do a fair bit of it on my cars just because i have to

my ute had a plastic one with no air con but its an 88 model

if its not noisy and still cooling the motor just leave it 

the thermo fan on my ute was stuffed and it was awful fan noise at anything over 1500rpm

it wasn't until i drove low km XG that i saw a clutch fan that worked how it should (it kicks in like a thermo fan and slows down enough that ya can't hear it when the engine cools)

plastic is fine i have one and my mates have them

we had trouble with the probes breaking of in the hose before fitting the adaptor

Those controllers seem the most common solution. I just don't like the probe in the hose, eveybody reckons they leak no matter what. Bit untidy too.

 

The EF and EL fans were wired differently, can't remember how. It relates to them being able to work at different speeds. I'd just ignore the extra stuff and go full speed, they will go for a bit then turn off.

 

Normally one is triggered by the AC too, but I'm guessing the ute doesn't have that. Just run a wire off the compressor switch wire to the relay trigger for one fan.

get one of these then the probe won't leak

it don't have to be a  big wiring task

easier than putting in a cd player

go down to the hardware store and get one of those josco polishing kits that fit the drill 

its like what the pro's use but smaller and slower but its easier than using ya hand

id say its fooked

just bung a thermo fan on it 

easiest way is to go for a drive then when ya get home  and leave it idle while ya drink a coffee or something listening to if it changes speed

If its working it will be obvious 

keep the 50cc pump and the brown cam

tune it with the nozzels

i closed down the PV restrictions a bit and run a 7.5 - 8.5 PV

the shutter you say is rich sounds more like lean stumble off idle

Sounds like a bad earth problem in the xf.

its my thermo fan over ride switch is some how doing something (if i turn it on with the engine off the battery don't drain)

Do you mean spark or park? If spark you ignition module or cap and motor might be dodgy, pull the cap and rotor ( pain in the ass on a xg) and try to wipe it out and spray some crc ot wd40 in there to try and drive the moisture out

looks like my finger missed the s key

yep i meant spark i tyred the wd40 and found the trigger wheel had a bit of surface rust on it

do XGs have TFI similar to the XF EFI

15X10 around and 325/50r15 on the back and 295/50r15 on the front

or equivalet diameter an width in 16 inch

found the problem on the XF

well maybe dellow or mall wood

and have a look around at swap meets and ebay because i think its something the speedway crowd would do

re drilling the bell and bolting the bell to the box could work but you will need some sort of ring around the input shaft bearing retainer because the singel rail is smaller

Castlemaine rod shop might have a bell housing

no point making 2 threads

first the XG it has no spark something to do with moisture because it only happens in damp cool whether

I would probably find the problem easy if the manifold wasn't so awful so any help would be good.

The XF has parasitic drain that makes the hand brake light glow dimly when engine is off what should i check

thanx

my ute had the tps and the bowl vent tube

maybe the ones from the 90s don't have it

to make the secondarys work properly fill in the slot in the circle with a mig

use the one that allows the secondary to open fully at full throttle (probably the one without the TPS wire)

i find the loud horn makes em stop in front of me and makes pissed chicks crossing the road late at night do a little jump and a skip

i have a Stebel Nautilus car horn

plus the 400hz stock electric horn all working at the same time

it sounds like a sprinter train and scares the fuck out of people

i done this conversion

i just slid the column down with a bit of pipe as a pry bar

but at that time i didn't care much about my ute as i had no intention of keeping it very long

Watch out for chuck norris i got him to remove mine and he pushed crank right through the radiator haha, nahh well ive made a small slide hammer for them and the work well, or cold chisel it from the lip in two seperit spots bit by bit and they come out easy as.

chuck noris if an old fucker he probably can't even lift his dick

its close at the moment, but im finding its running rich, but if i lean it out, it runs like shit, so i think im loosing power there.

why you say its rich ?
