Pull the fuel pump fuse and crank it

Should fire in the residual fuel in the cylinders

Sounds like the injectors are stuck open for some reason

Yeah this.... Give that a go.... Shouldn't be able to hydraulic lock one of these engines.... When the lines were backwards you would have had a heap of fuel pressure so maybe, but not now.....

I know fuel systems lol

Just don't let me touch it or it'll never go again!

Martin, too much rain?

Martin, too much rain?

when running slicks any amount of rain is to much rain

still first event run and suprised how much grip was available even though the track was wet to very wet all day

stopped raining just long enough to dry out a little bit and managed to set a decent time on the last run of the day

was first in class all day and managed a fourth outright in a field of 45 cars so not a bad effort

just cant beat 4WD in the wet

Good afternoon everyone

I need some tech help that I'm hoping someone can help me with

I have some vids from yesterday and need them edited to be able to upload them to Facebook or hosted on YouTube so wondering if anyone can help with this please

Thanks

im in birmingham gardens. it was suffering from hydralic lock which has been cured by accidently spraying a mate with petrol (he is okay now). the new problem is it is cranking but not igniting. so im thinking when the bosch spark plugs got submerged in water they died. we've called it quits for today. it also has a semi flat battery. its at 11v with the ignition off and drops to 3v during cranking so weve been using the forester to jump it. so at this stage im thinking ill invest in a set of ngk plugs, some new oil and then i need to get some fuel to my place from the servo as im running too low to make it to a servo when she does come back to life. also has anyone had any issue with bosch plugs?

See if u can borrow a set of coil packs from someone to, could be them, the stock packs are shit house.

Feel free to whore away :-)

I've been busy with work :domokun:

im trying to catch up on all the work ive missed getting everything sorted for my apprenticeship next week

Just a quick question for you all

Who would be keen for a come and try day at the local hillclimb track on the 16th Feb?

Cost is $25 from memory but not sure on car requirements yet as far as extinguisher etc goes.

That sounds pretty cool....

Can you hit pretty fast speeds on that hillclimb track or is it fairly slow and twisty

What do you call fast?

You can go as fast as you like just remember you have to keep on the track though or shit gets real in a hurry

    • I don't run the spring but it means you need to set your own belt tension.  I put tensioners on both sides too.
    • Hi soviet_merlin, We appreciate your concern regarding this possibly being some sort of PR/Political hype, I assure you that is not the case, I wish we could claim something like that, but in this case, we merely reached out for comment on the basis of the outrage we too felt, as those heavily in the automotive industry. Ps. the original source in the social media post is CarExpert not CarExplore.    Best, CE.
    • Made a bit of a discovery, but while I was cruising, I randomly decided to test to see if it worked and it showed up on my IC7. The entire time I tested it before, I never thought to turn the ignition on. I only tested it with head lights turned on but with the ignition off. Huge oversight on my end. I’m a dummy. I know. 
    • G'day all, I have drilled and tapped the hole for the relocation of the timing belt tensioner. That was straight forward. I'm unsure if I need to also put another hole for the smaller stud that the spring behind the tensioner catches on (this is how it seems to work in its original spot). Or do you not use the spring behind it and just torque it down? Thanks in advance, I did a search but couldn't find anything related and it doesn't mention it in the rb30det sau guide.
    • Hi All,  just thought I would provide an update as I know smooth (Matt) was on this forum from 2003.    my brother Matthew passed away end of may 2024 at the age of 41 from liver failure. I am not sure how many of his original team krazy friends are still on here or active but thought it reasonable to let the forum know.    if you have any photos or pictures it would be great if you could share them.    it took me a while to work out he was active on here.    thanks so much
