progress report

found why it would not run on gas when i bought it try the 6 mm line blocked totally and no gas going thru!

sorted it out thought i had a 4 valve tank in this car but it was another cab i wrecked at the same time so got that tank etc

but thought i see the actual limits of the 6mm line and sprint gas multi valve! before swapping!

made new fuel rail to suit gas and got injectors sorted!

sorry bad lighting i phone pics

Should give it a really distinct "Sssssssstu tu tu tu" blow off valve. Would suit the whole awesome funny taxi thing.

Keeping an eye on this :)

that dose comes from boost and not having a blowoff valve and as blow offs dont help an auto down the strip its getting a dose!

I have believed this for a long time that the Sssstu tu tu sound was from dose but I had no sound from my wagon under boosted, I fitted a turbo smart blow off and now it does the dose sound. Could you shed some light on what is the case there?

there must be a confusion in sounds as a blow off is your psssst and a dose is tu tu tu tu tu?

when you in melbourne next with it bring it in for a look!
