I agree, although the 3D manifold is very laudable and I also would love to learn 3D printing, with a decent printer under 200 now, I think it would...

When I tried it in my car there was so little airflow I doubt very much it would even clear the windscreen. This is an ongoing problem and I have yet...

Not expecting it to do much other than occasionally clear the windscreen...do you guys actually use the heat exchangers?? Sent from my SM-G935F...

I bought one of those but the output is very poor and likely to drain the battery ...

Mmmm I think you might be very disappointing with that, but hopefully I am wrong. Dirk

that is still high on my assumption but in order for that to happen I think there needs to be a pressure loss at some point and it will be down to...

The fuel filter and pump are below the tank so it could not drain back to the tank. Dirk

That is a possibility all be it a brand new pump. Dirk

Aww, shucks :blushing:. Actually, if I could I would do the windows in reflective bronze just like the Alfa Carabo, but unfortunately I just...

Vapor lock is high on the list. It also affects carby engines as well. Back in Australia our 4.4L V8 suffered a lot from vapor locks until an air...

Dirk, I can only imagine that he was hoping it would boost the airflow of hot air from the non existent heat exchanges. I'm not even contemplating...

I had similar issues with my old van, the check valve in the fuel filter failed and all the fuel drained back into the tank, creating a VERY big air...

It took me a little time but I remember that I worked on a car(not a subaru) with the exact same problem your having(hard to start when warm) and if...

Speaking as someone who would love to fit a Scooby to my Nova, but is keen to restore her and get her road legal as soon as possible ... I think I'll...

So what do you think the second fan in an enclosed box was for? Dirk

But despite the other pressures you've made a start! Well done!! :clapping: To be honest, if the chassis is as solid as it looks, and you can...

I had thought about the injectors leaking but had dismissed that one as the engine runs fine at idle and driving it, if the injectors where leaking...

I managed a little time in the Shed on Saturday, while my wife was at work and taking her out for her Birthday treat. Apparently helping me fix a...

A metal hole saw, drill, some flat steel & a length of tube take it to your friendly TIG welder & your continuity & melting scenarios will be non...

Is it PLA or ABS? 180 degrees against 230 degrees C (ish) don't think either are going to be reached in the engine bay without causing other...

My train of thought was, what would cause that issue and not throw out a trouble code. If the injectors are working but not properly or if the...

Yes the engine cover still fits but you raise an interesting point about the exhaust heat returns as I had not considered this. How hot does the...

Doesn't sound like a nice easy one to troubleshoot, I guess the OBD II is not giving any clues? I don't think you drove the donor car for any...

Might be bad injectors. one or more may be sticking causing a rich mixture. Which would explain why it starts easy when cold and when you turn the...

This weekend was going to be all about sorting the warm start issue as it is stopping me from taking it on the road in case I stall her. So during...

Mine arrived Friday- looks fantastic! Cheers Colin

Excellent work I feel I am missing out on lots of possibilities by not having a 3D printer. I have recently got a 6 month free trial of Alibre Atom3D...

Well spotted Alistair, you're right I kept meaning to fit a new cover plate and never got around to it:oops2:. But I really need to do something...
