The other thing that no one has said is that if you make sure there is oil where its supposed to be and all your hearing is a low volume whine ...... it will most likely go for thousands of miles . What you gotta listen for is a clunk from the diff as you get on and off the power , this is because t...

V8 mk3 , I wanna hear more about that !. Im working on a similar project .

I agree with the above .....diff .😁,and seeing as how I can think "diff" from tother side of the world I will go one further and say "pinion bearing ". If it aint to bad you may get away with tightening the pinion nut ½ a flat. After making sure there is actually oil in there.......

Champion plugs are common here ..... and probly just as good as NGK . Local shop has Nippon Denso and Bosch plugs also .
I spose they are all much the same .

Just that I recall bout early 80.s we were playing with a 283 small block chev with a powerglide trans .......which we had bodgied into a Vauxhaul Chevette , anyhow the thing kept rupturing the trans cooler lines . Heat was the issue , the rubber hose getting hot enough to be sticky........never did...

May be kinda obvious but make sure the hose is rated for oil and the the temp it may see

Well , yes , and no . I was gettin all keen there and then I had to pay the #uckin rates :swear: and then the rest of the loot went well south when I got the opportunity to buy all the original wooden bi-fold windows ( with tracks etc ) from the local school . And any how I went and had another butc...

RNZAF Woodbourne . Blenheim . I think that undercarriage was holding up a DC3 . There was a private freight company Called Safe air that ran a few planes out of that air field ..........might have been a Bristol freighter cant remember :D Looks like it could be a Bristol Freighter behind you. So no...

Just uniformed speculation That's very formal of you to wear a uniform when speculating! There's no doubt in my mind that it would be a WW2 RAF uniform. :lol: Andrew. Part way there 😅 https://i.postimg.cc/vZtTkz5S/DSCPDC-0001-BURST20230310125958840-COVER.jpg Ah well if its air force pix ( RNZAF ) w...

Well there was Ron Brierly ( another rmulti millionaire ) , who gave up his gong when it hit the fan , he got caught with paedo images.
New Zealand's shame , we are getting babies beaten to death ....... with a woefully low conviction rate . Whole extended whanau stonewalling police .

Well ..............Im still waiting for a shot of the underside

You tell 'em Hamish, get in there and start tearing their buildings down and tell they you're doing them a favour :lol: :D Nah :D , while I do think its hypocritical for them to keep all the stuff whilst at the same time actively distancing themselves from the guy , all was donated for the good of ...

Makes me wonder who is actually the worst here . Tha would be the filthy kid diddling paedo. Sorry I might have been a bis remiss here ..... there were no kids involved . The guy was convicted on charges of indecent assault on adult men ( I think it a case of "you play my game and you get what...

" draw ignited air......." Yep , there have been a few peeps got their eyebrows singed ( pyrotechnical depilitation :xd: ) . You sorta want to see whats going on down that hole into the engine , so you lean over for a look and get your face BBQ'd, Funny as #uck when you see it happen to so...

yeah , thats hard to know what bit of their history counts the most . We had a guy here who donated millions to the musical arts , got school buildings built, paid for and named after him , quite the hero ............turns out he is a sexual predator , the old story , one person speaks up loud enoug...

Make damn sure you dont drop one of the carb mounting spring washers into the manifold..... it could perhaps find its way into .... oh number one pot and then maybe get jammed down the side of the piston , I mean if that happened it may well munt the top and second rings , and logic would suggest th...

Ah , Im thinkin that it takes X amount of electrical energy to propel a vehicle , this energy is ultimately provided by an ICE. The amount of chemical energy required to provide the electrical energy will vary depending on how efficiently the ICE is running , if its at peak efficiency the losses con...

Im pretty sure the diesel electric trains were that way because an electric motor can give max torque at zero revs , which is ideal for getting big heavy trains moving from a standstill , and it does away with the need of a big heavy transmission. And , yes Andrew your right about regenerative braki...
