  1. Thanks agno. I reckon I'll get one. Cheers
  2. Hi there, I see you used a pierburg pump on a customer's car. Have you run it yet, any comments re noise? I'll end up using the new pierburg as a lift pump in fuel injection set-up. So a quiet pump would be ideal. The current carter is pretty loud.
  3. I'll check for pre filter, there's one there pretty sure it's down stream though. It's an older one I reckon 10 + years old. Ran it for an hour this arvo no problem. Reckon I'll flush it out and see if any crap comes out. I'll check that pump , thanks for the recommendation.
  4. Hi Guys, Car ceased to proceed this morning (datsuns don't break down) the carter electric fuel pump had stopped working and was extremely hot. About 3/4 later had cooled and worked again. Drove home. Any ideas what would cause this? Is just a sign the pump needs to be replaced? Thanks in advance. (L28, triple webers, carter pump with fuel return) Cheers
  5. Saw this, nicely restored, in far north Queensland. Chatted to owner - its number 233.

    Crack in paint

    Great tip. Thanks for the assistance!
  7. Hi guys, I have noticed a crack in the paint at the base of the windscreen pillar. Is this a typical thing? I'd guess there'd be a weld under this point. Should I jump on it and have it fixed or just put up with it? The car was resprayed about 4 years ago, but not to bare metal on this part. Thanks in advance.
  8. Anyone interested in webers, this is great explanation series on how they work and how to rebuild them.

  15. I just pulled my indicator switch to bits to fix it. So keep hold of your old one, it might be salvageable. My car's a 73, I'll have a look tmo. My high beam operates from the indicator stalk, where did yours used to?
