Whens the turbo going on !!!???

And yea that motor will slop side to side on and off the throttle so you need some flex in the intake.

Over summer sometime, I'm gathering parts still and don't want to pull my engine apart in someone's driveway with no cover in Invercargill, will do it in my own garage in Hokitika


Intake has a little flex but not much, will get some different silicon to soften it up when I get home next week

When I get leaking primers I fit a one way valve
Works a treat

Yup that's what I meant. Sweet if the junkyard primer doesn't fix it I'll do that

isnt that just letting air in tho? Better to replace the primer yea?

Yeah better to do a new primer, but al the second hand ones are all old as well
Also trying to tell people they need a 200+ primer so they can start in the morning and get max performance
Or fit a $10 one way valve so they can start in morning
I'm sure you can guess what gets fitted

From memory the hand primer assembly has a copper washer under it.put a new washer under it when you get it

Hmmm just a note. That T28 should be a good match for that engine- I would put it on.

I'm advised that it's too large, and I sold it for what I paid and got a more suitable T25 anyway

So the replacement fuel filter primer I got for 30 bucks used, doesn't fit, I need part number 23301-64090 and that appears to have been discontinued. Wonder if the assembly from a 1HZ would fit.

Fit an elec pump to increase your primary fuel pressure if you have to
