    Snorkel on a 3.5v8 good or bad idea

    On my 3.9 serp disco i put the coil and amp in a sandwich box and put an 8mm breather tube on it. Seems to help . I may put another pipe with a vacuum feed on it just to pull the hot air out of it as it does get warm and may cause a problem in the summer. I also made made a splash protector that...

    3.9 '92 Classic wiring

    Whilst trying to wire a 3.9 serp motor into my comp safari. I couldn't get lives to the fuel relay or coil it was because I had earthed all the black wires. One of them was an immobiliser wire that shouldn't be earthed. Once the auto electrician found it all was fine.

    Although I have had the cats removed the lamda are still there I have never tried going back to the white resistor to see how it runs with no cats but using the lamdas

    I had the Co trim set to 1.4 on both my disco and comp truck that also runs a 3.9 hotwire. I stole the afm off the racer. I have read about running them at 1.1.

    Got it. Faulty MAF. Which explains why the tick over had been hunting for the last months . I am running a non cat tune resistor so it is fully dependant on the maf for fuel metering

    3.9 serp with rrc guages how to get the temp gauge to work

    fault warning light

    I thought immobiliser but strange it goes on and off as I accelerate and decelerate.

    fault warning light

    After a few hard hours working my v8 disco import I have had a warning light come on. It's a red car shape with a key in it. The weird thing is I accelerate sometimes it goes out and as I take my foot off the accelerator it comes back on. I can here a relay clicking in the glove box.

    Question about tune resistor??

    No cats requires 470 ohm resistor. Ask a sparky to do a potentiometer set to 470 ohms that's what I did. You cannot buy them from anywhere

    3.9 serp with rrc guages how to get the temp gauge to work

    Hi everyone I have just put a 3.9 hotwire into my comp safari that previously had a 3.5 carb engine with rrc guages. I believe the 3.9 sender will give an incorrect reading with these guages and that the 3.5 sender is a different thread. I don't really want to reap a thread as Iam all running...

    What MPG do you get?

    i recently clocked my 90 on a trip up to the o2, which was probably 70% motorway or dual carriage way. Five of us in there maxed all the way in pouring wind and rain. Returned exactly 28.5

    90 Value

    It's good to check the completed listings on ebay. That way you see what stuff genuinely sells for, not just what they are after. Nothing seems to be shifting for good money it took me three months to sale a monaro with 25k on the clock and I had to reduce the price by over 3 K . Landys seem to...
