    Sarah, why not use a 78XX as voltage regulator then. Chris
  2. Well, then you could try to download some FSM's from XenonS30 and then compare, still i believe Dave would have the answer you are looking for. Yes i know about your side note, it's not that hard to tell when you go under the same name on 311s.org Chris
  3. What you are looking for is the member going under the name Zsondabrain, get hold of Dave, he can rebuild your original stalk. Chris

    I second Dave, fuel level is very important, it's a tedious job to get it right and it have to be within half a millimeter, find out the measurement and use a dial caliper. Here is some good information about Webers and here is some very good reading about setting up Dellortos, you can use the same principes, you just have to find the right fuel level for Webers. As a side note, remember this: always get your ignition right before your fuel delevery. Good luck Chris

    Stephen, i don't really get what you write, it might be a native issue, i will try to explain anyway, the shock tube is threated on the inside and the insert is held in place with a gland nut, whenever you will be able to see some of the threads when the gland nut is tightned down, depends on the actual length of the insert, as long as the insert is held tight in the tube you will be fine, if not and there is a slack, a spacer is needed. Hope this answer your question. Chris

  10. Robin, those are flat top carbs AKA "boat anchers" get rid of them and get that set on ebay.de or try to find some other SU here or here Chris
  11. Check your fuel filter and fuel lines first,they might be full of crap, how old is the gas, do you have fresh gas on the car? Vapor lock in sub zero temps? i'm not sure about that and i never had that problem here just a little north of Holland, i believe it very well can be you ignintion coil that is bad, try to put your hand on it when that happens and see if it get very hot. As a side note there is a set of carbs on ebay.de at the moment. Chris

    You will not need a cross over pipe on a L6, look at the firing order, on my twice pipe i run 1 3/4 inch, that equals to 2.5 inch single pipe in opening. Chris

    I have to say that i 2nd what Rich tell you, keep that car and restore it back to stock condition, hell you might even bee so lucky that you can buff that paint out to a shine. Chris
  23. If you got a spring rate at 150 lb/in, then it's not stock for a US model. Get some Euro struts, the lower perch sits 1½ inch higher on them. Chris
