Re: suicyde engine
If any of you have been following my other topic, then you may have seen some of the things I have been busy with trying to get the engine running properly. New larger fuel lines, different fuel pump and all sorts of things.
Just before I left SA to go back to work, I found a few pushrods with the tips able to spin, so those are going into the bin and another set will be ordered shortly.
I am also pretty sure that the stock ignition system cant cope with the engine. So I am doing plenty reading up and speaking to some people. Looks like I might be getting a setup from a fellow forum member - more details to follow when I have more.
I'll be back in SA in Feb, so hopefully I can make some big improvement then.
