What's the least amount of fuel you can run in a track car untill it starts to fuel surge?
Using R888's and a ITB'd engine!
i'm only asking because I don't have a fuel gauge and want to know how long I could run for on Dry days
So i've been having some alternator / battery issues on my trackcar.
What does the very thin wire that goes to the alternator actually do?
Is it just to power the light on the dash or does it spike the Alternator into charging the battery?
Just to note i have custom made engine & Interior...
Does anybody know what could be causing my brake peddle to be so soft for 3/4's of the travel and only the final 1/4 actually does anything!
I have all new copper brake lines, Braided hoses, 172 cup Master cylinder, Brake servo & bias valve. The front pads have quite a bit of pad left and the...
So the engine in my track only 182 is complete standard and with ITB's
Its going to spend most of its time up in the revs and so my recent thought was to treat myself to a set of ARP bolts.
But the engine is standard internally so are they actually worth doing just on there own or should i...
Hi Guys,
I'm running an Omex 600 ecu, and an Omex Coolant Temperature Sensor. I have no dash and i have made my own looms.

I have the excact 172 cup Non ABS set up on my track only 182.
Did a trackday last week and i noticed the rear disks were completly rusty still and the fronts were getting lots of abuse.
The set up was probably good because it was very wet but i'd like to actually have a tiny bit of rear...
So please note I took my car to a local company to get my tracking set for my track car.
car has -3.5 camber and I wanted 2mm toe out.
On the hunter machine it said -2.00 for the toe. Is that 2mm out or 20mm out?
Can someone confirm please?

Hi guys,
Anybody every used Tiger seal to bond in a rear plastic window?

Just wanted a bit of advice as to whats a good aftermarket rev counter.

This thread is to see what sort of Throttle position sensor is better for my car.
I started it yesterday and it was running perfectly but the fuel pipe was leaking so I drained the fuel system so I could fix the leak.
I filled up the tank again and started It and it running like a Subaru. Not...
Just need to know what size belt you would need to fit on a 172 cup set up which doesn't run the PAS.
I thought it was an 850 5 rib but it's not long enough as the alternator doesn't go low enough like it does usin the Volvo brackets.
Basically i want to know if the clio ends up on its roof will the pipe the goes to the carbon canister from the fuel tank leak fuel? The pipe has been cut so it just venting to the air.
Can i just put a bung in the end of that pipe or do i need an actuall none return valve.
Any help would be...
I just wandered if anybody knew if you can get any race pads for the willwood calipers.

I have tryed looking on the Internet but am having a day of fail and can't find any info.
Does anybody have any tips to removing/adjusting seized track rod ends.
Now i'm running quite a bit of negative camber on the front wheels, i've now got lots of tow in so i have tryed adjusting the trackrod ends and they are seized onto the arms.
Have i missed somthing like a grub screw or...

Now my car is only ever going to be driven on track I want to make some electrical changes.
I currently have ITB's and have an OMEX 600 ecu.
I want my car to just have the wiring/electrics just to get the engine running, have brake lights, indicators, work the rad fan and work the wiper...
I have detailed around 10 cars using a beginner friendly set of compounds and pads. Sometimes the swirles and scratches just wouldn't be corrected as well as I would have liked, not because I was doing it wrong but because I think the compounds were just light.
My question is instead of...
Right so I have a new master cylinder, new brake fluid resiviour and completely new brake lines. So the whole system will be dry. How would you recommend bleeding the system?
Would I try bleeding one brake at a time making sure the resiviour is allways full of brake fluid.
Any thoughts...
I just have three questions about sealing the water jacket on the side of my F4R.
Does the order go the engine first then the gasket then the sealant then the metal jacket?
Is it ok to use loctite superflex black silicon sealer (5940) as the sealer.
How much do I need to put on? A pea...

Right so as i have ITB's and run an Omex ecu i only run one Lambda sensor.
What i want to know is can my lambda sensor be put in the decat pipe instead or the manifold?
This will mean it makes it tonnes easier to heat wrap my Manifold which is what i'm doing in my living room right now :)...

Dave was it you on the A41 this morning just about to drive through Waddesdon?!
Your lights look great :)
I'm just after a little bit of help with wiring in my battery cut off switch as mine came with no instructions.
So are these forks for the Alternator wiring?
And does it matter which way round you mount the battery. So either battery on the left and car electrics on the right or might it...
