Thanks everyone for all the comments, Tho I think I will go with the sealant this time.

Thanks for that. I am just feeling my way thru, this is breaking new ground for me.

I am finally getting to the weber instal time. I have the adapter plates and gaskets, I used supplied gaskets and made the others from a roll bought from Auto1. I am wondering if using LOCTITE No.3 non-hardening aviation sealant is ok. The reason is because I have a bottle of it! It states resistant...

Thanks guys for the help, It is the metal pipe behind the manifold. I will try cutting it down a little and use the original hose. The water pump to heater hose pipe has the "T" piece for the smaller hose to the carby base. I am thinking of shortening the metal pipe to cut out the "T" piece and putt...

I have finally bit the bullet and started the weber replacement on my ea81. I have removed the inlet manifold and I have noticed two things, one is that the main water inlet pipe on the rear is rusted. Am I able to buy a new one of these or are they as rare as rocking horse sh*t! Also there is a sen...

That certainly is a problem! Is that a Redline adapter plate? looks about similar quality and fit (i.e poor) to my redline kit. In the 2nd pic you can clearly see it won't seal the water jacket hole which is a problem, other way round it would hit that vacuum hose. Remember the larger end of the in...

Hmm thats certainly different to mine. I had a quick look but couldn't see a part number, pretty sure its by redline though. I snapped some pic's anyway and maybe someone will know who makes it?? https://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/833x622q90/835/bq8k.jpg https://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/471x352q90/...

Yeah, I spun it around, didn't change it any, I had a small spacer but not enough. I thought perhaps turning the whole carby around, but that just confused me even further!!

Hi Doug, These are the links to the pics; [img] http://imageshack.com/a/img834/5814/cjoi.jpg [/img] [img] http://imageshack.com/a/img838/9766/8jyx.jpg [/imgt] The adaptor plate shows the 6mm pins in just to centre the plate. I could turn the plate around but I would have to remove that hose at the b...

I managed to get a power steering unit to go in the 87 brumby, but there are no bolts, etc for it. Is there anyone (in WA probably) that has the bolts to help or which ones I need to buy?

Cheers

Hi guys, I have finally decided to have a go at installing the weber onto my ea81. I have the dgav and adapter plate and a manual choke kit. I notice that when I dryfit the weber, the "choke pull-off diaphram" hits the distributor plug. I tried changing the adapter plate around but that just hits th...

Geez, even I remember Daktari, guess I must be gettin old after all!!!

Ahh!! Finally some-one who understands the complexities and quality of Star Trek and what they may one day give us. Isnt it amazing that items thought of in Star Trek are actually coming true. :cool: I'd love one too! But building one myself is so time consuming, buying one is so wallet consuming! M...

Hi mate, Looking for the wiper switch assembly and grey box under dash so I can put intermittent in the Brumby. Stuart Hi all, I'm wrecking Leonie and selling whatever I can.

Heya Stuart, Yeah I got it done at Auto power steering @ 1/21 Guthrie St Osborne Park WA 6017 (08) 9446 4122 They do both Auto and manual steering racks, it cost me $300 for a recondition, just make sure you ask them in the quote as to what is included as it did not include tie rod ends which I was...

Cheers for the offer Bennie but looks like Guy has come to the rescue. Cheers Guy, if you want to sell one of those racks that would be Awesome, I have managed to find some really clean H4 headlights along with a set of genuine plastic protectors so will pass on the headlights, but the rack is just...

Item - I would like to replace my two Brumby doors with ones that are not rusted out. Description - Mine are rusted around the hinges and as I am getting some panel work done, the panelbeater said mine are stuffed Condition - no structural rust, minor surface is ok, I'll get the panelbeater to touch...

Cheers Stuart Need as much vac line diagrams / photos as possible Put hitachi back on cant remember how vac lines went And it's running rich and using heaps of f...

Hi guys, I have the Tribeca 08 and have had it for about two years. Love it, if you want good fuel economy, you need to drive it gently. I get about 8-9km/100 on open road. That changes to about 13km/100 around town. Whereis charges about $300 to upgrade your maps, I haven't found anywhere else yet....
