Re: Jake Raby E.F.I. System for Sale - UNUSED - NEW PRICE!

The red parts are (red anodized) aluminum fuel injector bungs. I had them anodized to complement the Aeroquip hoses/fixtures I was planning on using for the install. The injectors mount directly into them. They look like they just hold the injector to the manifold - how does the fuel rail mount to ...

Re: 710k running like crap

You can build a float level for very little money - I posted instructions on here some time ago but can't find the thread at the moment

Re: dehumidifier in a 710K

It's not going to hurt the vehicle. Mine has big gaps in the door seals and there are vents in the footwells but if it's working for you then that's good!

I just wish I had mine in a driveable state... :(

Re: 710k running like crap

If you are not using the manual choke then it sounds like it's running rich and fouling the plugs.

You could try checking the float levels in the carbs or (gently!) adjusting the idle mixture screws. Are the choke levers in the correct (i.e. forward/closed) position?

Re: dehumidifier in a 710K

If the gaps in your Pinz are anything like mine, I'd be worried that you'd be trying to dehumidify the wider environment (and in Scotland, you're going to have a job!). Give it a go and see what happens - the heat given out will probably help reduce condensation too but unless the inside is insulate...

Re: Jake Raby E.F.I. System for Sale - UNUSED - NEW PRICE!

Great looking manifold/plenum - does it come with a fuel rail? If not, how does that attach to the injectors?

Re: Tapatalk?

Tapatalk makes it much easier to browse forums and deleting PM's becomes easy - just one swipe instead of about 4 clicks...

If it doesn't cost anything to implement then I suggest just trying it on the forum - I'd certainly find it very useful

Re: Transmission Removal

It's quite light. If I were you, once the access panel is removed, put a piece of wood across with a strap round it to take the weight when you remove it.
