    Thoughts on removing AC system

    Cracking up at "Dan the Turtle" (on his back he's f****d) ;) I think we need to get the "what's you age" poll going again as I remember I wasn't the oldest but damn close!

    Thoughts on removing AC system

    I see lots of posts here about removing the belt? I can't see that a freewheeling compressor pully would take much in the way of power to turn? (not bagging anyone just curious if there really is a noticable difference)

    Thoughts on removing AC system

    Anyone have an idea how the "Econ" setting works? (I assume it shuts the compressor clutch off when accelerating)

    7MGTE question?

    As GJ says the tq settings used were a bit off! Electrolysis in older motors that haven't had the correct coolant is also a factor as the aluminium in the head around the water passages is the first to go! (there are a few of different ways the gasket can "blow" ie: Coolant>Sump...

    damage from disentigrated plugs

    AJ: Not sure what the part number was but they're the Iridiums for our motors as listed (18mm socket I think) Sort of surprised no one has done a surface gap plug for cars yet! (No protruding ground electrode and are used in outboard boat motors)

    MK3 suspension guide

    The Koni's have quite a wide adjustment range so you should get a setting to match!

    Compression Test Results, What Now?

    7M's "puff" a bit and breathe heavy but at idle there shouldn't be positive pressure (you can feel this putting your hand over the fill hole). I have good comp on a fresh build and had to put bigger PCV hoses on as the ones I used weren't flowing enough on the dyno.

    damage from disentigrated plugs

    Damn I'm old enough to remember when Champion were "the plug"! I'm using Iridiums and so far they've been good even surviving the Mega Rich early days when it was untuned without fouling!

    BHG/ idle cool/ high speed over heat

    Oper8or: Check the head for errosion under the copper rings at the water passages, you might have to have the head surfaced then check the same area on the block if it's ok and the block is flat there's no reason why a stock gasket won't work! (I did 100,000+ KM's after doing much the same...
