Re: My Lowlight SC
Will see what happens today.A friend of mine that does great work on rebuilding engines has got the engine now to see what is wrong with it.
Hopefully it will run by tomorrow,will see.

Re: My Lowlight SC
Hey Chris, I like, very nice.
Side note: its Monday 31st, at about 4pm.....and Chris is stuck next to the freeway, sadly another one bites the dust. How unlucky can this engine be???

The number plate... if you stretch the imagination, (not too far... Vader), it reads 'sucker'. Well to me anyways...

Re: My Lowlight SC

I don't know what the hell is going on.The tin is tight,so is the timing and it get enough air.I don't over rev it and only do 80km/h.
I give up.

Re: My Lowlight SC
Could a fault in the gearbox cause this kind of engine failure?
I would also give up, but the thought of the toyota motor! no Chris, say it isn't so

Re: My Lowlight SC
I just can't have it standing.If it stands,I don't earn money,something I can't afford at the moment.
At least with the Toyota engine I know it will be reliable.
