Stripped mine all apart and cleaned them down with acetone the coated them twice with a good quality polyester resin ! No misfire for around a year. Very easy to do and works fine as the polyester resin seaps into the cracks catylises and is stable up to about 600 degrees C !

PM sent Dude and try the tutorials section !

Dude ! Do you mean after market sway bar and springs not stock ones ?

Do a google search on Eldred Norman. He had a on/offswitch on his supercharged 1967 HR holden 6.. Normally asparated through the carb and filck the switch and it would redirect throught the supercharger !

Dude ! It might be good to people know where abouts your from ! State ? Suburb and the like !

Yep sounds about right for that type of clutch ! Also check if your clutch peddal box is ok and the spot welds are holding together. Big poundage pressure plates tend to bust em.

Do a search in the tutorials section as there a repair method there. Also put up a post in the wanted section if its completly dead.

Sorry to hear its gone to god. Been there done that with the bad luck thing. Smoky gave me the heads up. Look just use his parts and do a 3lt for your 33 he aint gonna use em for a while anyway ! ! !

That bloody idiot postie ! Hes gone and delivered it to the wrong address ! Should of went to my place ! Its mine I tell you ! MIIIIIIIIINNNNNE !

Hi all, Ive got a silver top RB20DET, red top RB20DE and a brand new in the box bare RB20det head. The problem is the rocker covers are off them and I cant tell which is which. I think the silver top is a complete head. Its been decked as the guy I got them off was going to do a RB30 conversion with them but then went with a RB26 head instead. $280 for the silver top & red top RB20DE $350 for the new RB20DET Located in Sydney Pics available

Hey did you find out what your miss fire problem was ?

I make exact reproduction ones that dont wear out. In Sydneys outer west. PM me if your intersted

Haha ! Zero degrees ! Move over here to Sydney ! Nice and warm by comparison But uts a bit cold here for summer at the moment (20degrees). I have to second what Munkyb0y suggests also about the plug gap. Also when you said you have changed the coils did you go brand new or second hand. The R33 Series 1 are natorious for cracking. Some of the cracks being so fine it cant be seen with the eye. A good way to see if its arcing out of the coils is to take off the valley cover and secure the ignitor pack with cable ties and when its dark fire the engine and look of it arcing out of the coils.

Dude ! Stop shouting man ! We can hear you all the way from Perth ! 6BANGER your clutch pedal box is broken. Had exactally the same prob with mine. Just take it out and weld it up.

Dude ! Go to the Tutorial section and do a search and you'll find a repair method for this particular problem. Thats how I fixed mine.

Hey hello over there ! Ive read your post a couple of times and you dont say which car has the misfire ? The R32 or the R33 ? At a guess I'd say the first place to start would be putting a rising rate fuel pressure regulator on it as the Walbro pump is probably pumping past the stock regulator. Let us know how you go !

You can get polyester resin from Bunnings. Its the same resin(gelcoat) they use for fiberglassing. Just go to the fiberglass section and get a small tin, some acetone for clean up and a good idea is some thin rubber gloves. Clean the coils down with the acetone to get rid of the carbon deposits. As to the silicon thats gonna be a tough one as the polyester resin wont stick to it at all. You MUST get it all of for it to work. Mineral turps or even Xylol/Xylene and a lot of rubbing with a cloth is best and again finish off with acetone. You will also need some small paint brushes that are NOT synthetic bristles as the styrene monomer in the polyester resin will melt them. Mix up the gelcoat as per instructions on the tin( best to do it in parts as it starts to go off in about 15 mins). Take you brush and start to dab a thin layer all over the body of the coil leaving out the plug area and of coarse the area where the rubber insulator goes over. I gave mine two coats just to be sure. If youve added the catylist (hardener) at the right ratio the it should start to go off in about 15-20mins and be touch dry. Try and put them in the sun for about an hour and they will achieve full cure. That about covers it.

I live at the foot of the Blue Mountains on the outskirts of Sydney. $180 sounds reasonable but how do you tell if they are not suffering the same prob as the ones you've got now ?

Where are you located ? I'll coat the ones that you think are giving you probs for free with polyester resin ! What have you lost ? If it works good ! If it dont them buy the ones you need ! Thats a hell of a saving if it works.
