Where do you get your cars from?
@Clyde Productions
These days it's definitely getting harder to get good solid project cars, they are still around though.
The best thing to do is be observant, whether that be online, driving through a country town or your local area.
Talk to people about cars, at shows, workshops, car clubs and places like pubs.
Just don't be that person that walks up to everyone with ''how much for your car?'' or ''I'll give you $50 for it''. That'll get you nowhere, particularly in the country.
The gems are still around just gotta go about it the right way
hey mate could you make a vidieo about the afm and what the blade screw does behined the butterfly area and were it should be for 95 octane etc pls. i have no dam manual chears poor as fk. . ps are you in qld
@David Stewart
Sorry NSW.
The blade screw essentially adjusts the 'range' on the AFM sensor. Which has some effect on rich-lean mixture tuning.
The tune up should realistically be set up with a gas analyser. Although if you have your timing set correctly an experienced 'ear' should be able to get it close.
Any spec info for this car I found on various google searches.
Remember the efi systems components are old now and easily be suspect.
I always check engine basics first, spark plugs, fuel pressure etc.
Hope this helps.
Let us know how you go.
Also the blade screw on the throttle body when adjusted has some control over base engine idle speed.
