Taz_Rx Posted November 23, 2011 Author Report Posted November 23, 2011 5K is out, stripped of all necessary parts. About to go and replace the spigot bearing in the other motor and then its reassembly time. Oh and still gotta get the bb oil feed pill. Local brassware place wanted $30 to weld and redrill my one! told the guy I can get one off ebay for $12 so he suggested I do so. Quote
Taz_Rx Posted November 23, 2011 Author Report Posted November 23, 2011 ...Spewing. Wrong bearing. That's why you don't make assumptions! Quote
mhmills Posted November 23, 2011 Report Posted November 23, 2011 To assume things... Only makes an ass out of u n me :P Sorry had to! What engine you swapping in? Cheers, Jake. Quote
Taz_Rx Posted November 23, 2011 Author Report Posted November 23, 2011 One that doesn't leak oil! I've put so many front main seals in it and can't stop it. Quote
Evan G Posted November 23, 2011 Report Posted November 23, 2011 are you running a pcv? is there a groove on the blancer shaft? when installing it make it sit out 1mm so it runs on a different surface. Quote
Taz_Rx Posted November 23, 2011 Author Report Posted November 23, 2011 Tried everything. I think it could be some worn bearings causing a little bit of float in the end of the shaft. Find out when I strip it down soon I suppose. Quote
kickn5k Posted November 27, 2011 Report Posted November 27, 2011 Back in a boosted 5K yet Si???? Quote
Taz_Rx Posted November 27, 2011 Author Report Posted November 27, 2011 Nah waiting on that pill Quote
kickn5k Posted November 27, 2011 Report Posted November 27, 2011 I'll double check there isn't one sitting in my speedflow fitting when I get home. Quote
Taz_Rx Posted November 28, 2011 Author Report Posted November 28, 2011 :hmm: Hmm look what I just found..... http://gcg.com.au/index.php?page=shop.product_details&flypage=flypage.tpl&product_id=182&category_id=36&option=com_virtuemart&Itemid=53 Drops into the fitting I have currently. Just can't remember if mine is -3 or -4. Pretty sure its -3. Quote
Taz_Rx Posted November 29, 2011 Author Report Posted November 29, 2011 Turns out its -4, so just ordered one of these..... http://gcg.com.au/index.php?page=shop.product_details&flypage=flypage.tpl&product_id=181&category_id=36&option=com_virtuemart&Itemid=101 Hoping to be back on the road by the end of the weekend! :dance: Quote
kickn5k Posted November 29, 2011 Report Posted November 29, 2011 Noice!! I checked all my dash fittings off that 25-60 and no restrictor in sight sorry. Quote
Taz_Rx Posted December 13, 2011 Author Report Posted December 13, 2011 Good news - Running again.... finally. Bad news...... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2L1A0kHOgXA&feature=g-upl Quote
kickn5k Posted December 13, 2011 Report Posted December 13, 2011 Damn!!! Wow it's worse than I thought. I've spoken to MTQ and they'll give me a call this arvo or tomorrow morning hopefully will have a fix for you. If not I'll swing you your cash back. Once again sssssooooo sorry I was lead to believe it was good. Might be time for a steel shaft/wheel conversion ;) Stu. Quote
Taz_Rx Posted December 13, 2011 Author Report Posted December 13, 2011 Thanks mate. Sorry if I sounded a bit rude in my message yesterday. Was just about to take it for a first drive then noticed that so I was a little >| . Reckon if I did drive it it would have filled the cooler in a lap round the block.... considering its not even boosting in the vid. With any luck I'll get the .49'd S14 t28 (reckon I'll give it a try) on by the end of Saturday. Quote
