    xd falcon external trans cooler?

    Thats still through the radiator too. Doesnt look like factory fit from those brackets on the cooler lol. Unless ford was using 8year olds in the factory

    straight gas in an iron head 4.1?

    I had stright lpg on my old datsun race car. ... it was pretty quick and cheap. 2min 23 fastest lap around phillip island out of a 1.6lt. Wondering how the iron heads react to straight lpg. Thinking of ditching petrol in it for straight lpg. My lpg guy reckons the later alloy heads were better on lpg (not the crappy first series alloy heads). Many iron heads on lpg round here?

    Dual battery system ideas

    I use a 28ah agm deep cycle as my battery in my 4 cyl datsun. Its only used occasionally and never had an issue in 5 years. It's great to leave it for weeks on end and jump in and it cranks and starts straight away. Never had that luxury with a lead battery. Plan on setting a 2nd battery up in my wagon. Do you have a wiring diagram of your relay set up. Sounds way better than the kits

    car wont idle after swap from strom to 34adm

    Well havent tried it yet but lol the neg spade terminal was missing off the starter I used. Wired up pink brown to pos and red (pink) blue to neg. Will try tomorrow. Damn power failure last night couldnt see a thing
  15. Well swapped in another iron head 4.1 into my xd. Put a different manifold and put an xf 34adm webber on as the stromberg chokes more than england in the ashes. I turn the key and it fires to life. Let go of ignition key it dies. I made a video but waiting for photochuckit to upload it... slow since upgraded app

    There are 2 wires on starter. I thought I labeled them right to replace. Other wise wiring diagram doesnt show what color wire on pos or neg side of coil tabs. Thanks for the response

    Well got fuel up to filter and pumping into carby no issues. No spark out of coil and when I turn the ignition key to start when it returns to the on position starter still cranking. Couldn't find my test light so im left scratching myhead (or other parts) must be the ignition switch but how do I bypass that to test . Tried another coil same deal.

    changing from efi to carby

    So a facett pump is fine in the engine bay. I thought better in the rear as they push better than they pull fuel.

    Well fuel filter was dry. Drained tank (most of it) pulled it out. Dropped it and spilt about 5 lt of it and drained past the neighbour's. I hosed area down and added car wash to disapate the spill. Damn tank has what looks like 2cm mud in it. Cleaning out now with washing liquid and water then will use acetone to rinse. Fuel gauge sender was blocked with mud too even though cleaned 4 weeks ago with acetone. Hope pump not stuffed but cleared out lines now so can only test. Mrs not happy. 5lt stank out house carport and street
