CD_rollaman Posted February 9, 2006 Report Posted February 9, 2006 So what happened to your work guys? This thread has fizzled. Necro +1. Quote
Xany Posted February 9, 2006 Report Posted February 9, 2006 mine is kinda put on hold......i'll get it finished in the near future.....trust me. :D i might have a bit of time to work on it this weekend actually :o Quote
love ke70 Posted February 10, 2006 Report Posted February 10, 2006 what about banjo, i read this thread back when i was newb, it makes more sense now, and i want all to be revealed :o Quote
Xany Posted June 25, 2006 Report Posted June 25, 2006 well......i thought i'd dig this up now that i've actually completed the stand and have an engine and gearbox sitting on it properly.....its a bit more primative to banjos, but its all still there...lol... i'll get piccys up sometime this week.

NickZ Posted June 25, 2006 Report Posted June 25, 2006 I want to know how the engine ran. You normaly don't put the magnets into steel as it spreads the magnetic field,so it wont be as pinpointed, you normaly put them into aluminium. Are the magnets raised above the surface, If it does work ok id like to try it myself. Quote
Xany Posted June 26, 2006 Report Posted June 26, 2006 well i figured out the bug that was in my system, and EEEEETTTS ALIVE!!!! The 5K i have on the stand atm roared to life at about 8:30 tonight....with no exhaust i might add....lol So next is hooking up the gauges i have sitting here and then running the engine for a bit :) Quote
love ke70 Posted June 26, 2006 Report Posted June 26, 2006 noice!! gotta see some pics! did u get flammage out the lack of exhaust? :) so is it an actual dyno ? Quote
Xany Posted June 26, 2006 Report Posted June 26, 2006 Atm its just a test stand....it may turn into a dyno if i can figure out how to hook something to the output of the engine... :) The engine hasnt actually run long enough for anything to heat up, there for no flammage....(didnt wanna piss off the neighbours with the noise) Quote
love ke70 Posted June 26, 2006 Report Posted June 26, 2006 soft! ahaha i wanna see flamage vids! can't u do the whole drum brake to the crank and blah blah like old school engine dynos remember readin somethin bout it once Quote
irokin Posted June 27, 2006 Report Posted June 27, 2006 Grab a hydraulic PTO off a digger or something. Hook up a valve to control the load and an oil cooler to stop things getting real hot, real fast and away you go. Variable load dyno :) Quote
Dan Posted June 27, 2006 Report Posted June 27, 2006 This is great! I think that I'll be grabbing the crossmember off my KE55 before it goes to scrap, I'm taking from the pictures at the start of the thread that there is only four bolts holding it on? Cheers, Dan. Quote
Xany Posted June 27, 2006 Report Posted June 27, 2006 Correct...make up a frame and hook up some electrics and away you go... The 5K i have only just got running hasnt been started for about 18months....and it basically started first go, with some choke and a bit of cranking....who said k motors werent reliable.. lol...

Dan Posted July 2, 2006 Report Posted July 2, 2006 Alright, thats it; I'm going outside to take the crossmember off; back soon people :dance: Quote
