more supercharger talk

the big plug is tight, is just that the small one is tighter so when I try to pull the small one the big one comes loose.

and the stock lift pump is putting fuel through the pump just fine, but there still seems to be pockets of air in the pump. not lots by any means, but enough to be a pain.

I almost forgot! pics!

why is it always big guys that like little fast diesel cars? my friends always give me crap for driving VW powered rigs, but i would like to see a civic with as much leg or head room.

tis true, the MK2 is a damn comfy ride.
at least on pavement, the lowered suspension makes rough roads a real hair raiser.

another thing, does your hood shut? s/c looks a bit high in the pics.

[truckinwagen]

yes it does, but it is close.

I am going to need heavy duty motor mounts to keep it from smacking the hood on hard launches.

also, I just fund a electronic speedo sender for my 020, so I can get rid of the stock cluster for good, and get rid of that pesky speedo cable.

Beer and angle grinders, now there's a combo

I spent the day sober, my buddy mike, however, did not

I am heading back out to his place tomorrow to see if setting the injection pump timing will get it running.

I really hope the clutch is still good, it made some smoke trying to tow it to prime the pump, I had to be on it more than I wanted to keep the tires from locking up.

Just got my son to bed and have a correct cable to use with my camera.  Here is a better video of my Caddie, more to come once I get enough time to work on it and film more.

what did you do to the G60 throttle body? does it have anything in it anymore? i was thinking about that last night, but you probably already gutted it right?

[truckinwagen]

the throttle body has had the butterflies removed and the bypass closed for the time being.

eventually I will work out a way to pull both cables to make the bypass close under throttle which will allow  me to use the idle and WOT switches it has as well.

[truckinwagen]

well, no start yet, got the pump timed and it tried, but then the pump started to leak out of every seal(BAD) so I will be heading back out in the next couple days to replace it with onother one in hopes that it fixes it.

I am going to try the cummins injection pump, it is new, so I am confident that it wont leak fuel everywhere.

I have not done any modifications to it yet, are there any reasons why a stock cummins 4BTA pump would not run? anything I need to do differently to get it to run? a different timing spec?

I am thinking that I will start off at 1.00MM of lift for timing and see what happens, and adjust accordingly.

sound good?
