    What is this on my Willy

    Thats the brake compensator, it should be just loose when nothing is in the car. As the rear suspension compresses it yanks on that arm and the valve baises more pressure to the rear brakes. if its set up wrong youll be locking the rears all over the shop.

    HELP! Idle speed too high!

    potentiometer is red and on teh throttle spindle, dont touch it, its not a problem. ISCV or Idle Speed Control Valve is the sort of cylindrical shaped thing on the side of the throttle body, with a rubber pipe comming off it, start the engine and squeeze it, it should whistle. Take it off...

    Williams Air Scoop

    use your aircon lol. You could use a charge cooler filled with dry ice i guess, but using an intercooler would no lower the temp at all. You take in ambient temp air, send it through a large capacity intercooler, only to be cooled by.......ba dum, ambient temp air........heat soak can occur...

    HELP! Idle speed too high!

    clicking is probably just the injectors.....tappets have to be heavily worn to tap majorly. Potentiometer is the TPS and provides the ECU with throttle position data. But i think your problem is either the ISCV or a leak in the manifold somewhere.........possibly one of the vacuum hoses.

    Williams Air Scoop

    Correct. BUT, the principal is that you cannot create an increase in the relative positive pressure in the airbox.............there is no one way valve to contain air entering it to come out. THen you have to consider the massive volumes of air a 2ltr engine consumes, flow at rd speeds would...

    ECU’s job

    The MAP sensor does that job.

    Williams Air Scoop

    dunno, not aware of any drain pipe like pipe in teh engine bay, jsut a rubber elbow from the airbox And the pug design is to best get a fresh supply of cold air. The Ram principal does work in theory, but not even F1 or Indycars apply it. The speeds we can reach are just not high enough...

    Polishing the...

    take the manifold off, best use some emry cloth then finer emry to smooth it first as the casting grain is large and rough, then use a bench polisher and hand held air polisher.....

    Strange thing happened this morning

    nope. All abot emissions, do a hot start where the at is up to temp and itll drive fine from the off. Ive said it one ive said it a million times, it runs the engine extreemly lan to make the emissions for EURO 3 complience, until the cat is warmed up and can do its thing.

    Kent Cams - Inquiry from Argentina

    you can still gian power by either advancing or retarding the cams slightly either way....... although cams should all be identicle, they very slightly and each one will need the timing to be oh so slightly diff.

    Kent Cams - Inquiry from Argentina

    Cams help quite a fair amount when coupled with a decently modified head, but going only a tiny bit wilder really doesnt do the trick.....its a waste of money if you go for a mild profile. Try piper they are a tad better with their profiles. Schrick or Cat cams are what i would stump for...

    ktec exhaust problem...

    i had the problem. jsut get ot on a ramp, get a acetelene torch on it (careful the fuel tank is right behind it) then bend the hander to lift the exhaust up....i did it and its fine. Use stronger rubbers as the Ktec system weighs a TON and even mine needs the rear most rubber replacing...
