  1. Not sure, but I'd say a big end is on the way out, you have an oil blockage, probably at the big end journals, your motor is in dire need of a rebuild. If you keep driving it you will kill it big time. But I'd get a second opinion, bl##dy hard to diagnose over the web........
  2. As per my previous, try this: http://www.hksusa.com/FAQ/?id=1647&rsku=0 Then download the evc III one.
  3. Until recently, you could get the genuine 3076 for sub $2k, then you have $500-700 left over for dump pipes etc. And they are basically a bolt on replacement [well they bolt to the manifold OK]. So for that money you can get more, bugger, brighter, better...........
  4. That boost controller is probably measuring/displaying in kg/cm2 and not psi. There are conversions on the net. If you hit the high button with the ignition on, it will display your high boost setting for a few seconds before looking for your present high boost readout - which will be 00.00 if you don't have the motor going. You can do the same with the low boost button. Not sure, but I think it is a HKS III evc. Definitely HKS, could be a II, not sure. You will be able to download a manual for it from the Usa HKS web site. Pwr is power on/off, mode is the switch to go to different setting modes [time, boost level etc]. and Sbc is your scramble boost - basically a high boost hit. So if your normal High boost is set at 1.2 kg/cm2 and you want to up it for a short time [say 30 seconds] then you set Sbc up to your nominated high hit [say 1.6 kg/cm2] and it will boost to that extra level for 30 seconds while you pass another vehicle or something. You will rarely use it unless your racing, and unless you have a built engine, it is likely not a good idea, it would stress a std motor.
  5. A soft aluminium scrapper, and sometimes a small screwdriver used as a peen tool and the carbon pings off [don't use it too hard, the idea is to shatter the carbon not mark the piston]. Used correctly both tools will remove carbon without damage. Then your stuck with carbon soot falling down between the piston and the bore and sitting on the top compression ring, but it shouldn't last long once you start it up again.
  6. Sorry, my bad, I saw the signature sign in your posts and thought you'd decided on 13th, now I see its for NSW, stupid me.
  7. Also check your plugs and coils. fuel pump, fuel filter, plugs, coils
  8. yep, reset to 0.8 and you'll be fine
  9. Is your knock light flashing, orange engine light in top right hand corner of dash. I'd say with 92, you would have severe knock and if you keep going you will do permanent damage - hole a piston, meltdown!!! Solution 1: drain the fuel out of your tank and fill up with 95+ Solution 2: drive like an old granny till you have used the fuel up and then refill of cause it could be a dying fuel pump or fuel filter instead, but going on the info you have supplied............
  10. We'd all help if we could understand, not trying to be negative, but hard to help if you don't post in a logical methodical way.
  11. I've had this before. What you have is an airgap somewhere in your wiring. When you test for circuit the airgap is small enough or just touching so that voltage will show as being normal 12-14v. But when you have it under load, it will fail, amps don't like airgaps. Remember you need certain thicknesses of wire for working loads, with the airgap the 'thickness' is missing. It could be in your connectors/spade terminals. There could alternatively be a break internally in a wire, you can't see it for the plastic insulation. Make up a wire say half a metre long and use different connectors etc and substitute it for each wire in turn. BTW the clicking sound is probably the power trying to get across the airgap.
  12. turbo elbow is a bend at the turbo that sends the boosted air to the fmic
  13. If it's December 13th, I can go [it is about the only date I'm not booked]. Just say where?
  14. Has your mod hot wire/s got circuit? it could be an internal break?
  15. anyone?/?
  16. Here comes the rain.......... 21st or any time then is going to be chaos on the roads, every man and his rickshaw will be out, its way too close to Xmas. If you have it, bags not driving too far, plus if you want to stay, you won't get accommodation or if you do it will be at peak season rates. And I'd like to come, but I'm booked out, sorry.
