One Wiper Speed

Hey Guys,

Just finishing off my Tonner and need a bit of help/advice. Atm when the wipers are turned on they work fine but when turned to the next speed up nothing really changes, they keep running but at the same speed with a bit of a grinding noise comming from the motor.

Is this a dead motor or a possibly fixable motor?

need this done as its the last thing before i can go for blue slip.

Cheers

Sad, my bothers P/van is for sale

Sad, my bothers P/van is for sale

http://cgi.ebay.com....

My brother seems to have given up his dream of doing up his panel van and is now selling it
I have annoyed him for years about getting off his ass and putting some elbow grease into it
but now he just wants to get in a car and drive it, when he is not running that is, which is all he does
now.... run in marathons.

He had a new 308 for it but sitting around got to it and it needed rebuilding, he sent it off
never to be seen again, I dont know what the story is but Im quite pissed that we didnt even get
it back.
His auction is not very descriptive in my mind as he spent quite a lot of time collecting the parts he has

Looking for the guy that makes custom hardlids for a HZ ute!!!

Hey everyone,

I was wondering if anyone had some knowledge on where I can get a hardlid for my HZ ute, I have seen aluminium hardlids advertised a while ago but can't seem to find any now. Not worried about the particular material as long as it's professional. Preferably in the VIC or lower NSW areas.

Thanks guys

HQ-WB Mini Tubs? How To?

Hi Guys, New to this site, First Post.
I'm interested in finding out Info on mini tubbing my HZ sedan.
I have a good idea of what needs to happen, But I was hoping I could see some pics and even a "how to" Guide before I get started.

I'm considering removing the chassis rail and moving it across to the edge of the spring mount and modifying it to be re-fit. Then welding a strip in to keep original inner guards.
I want this to all look factory when its done.
Has anyone attempted this???

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

253 Rocker Arm Pivots - Arrows facing in or out ?

My max Ellery book tells me to have the arrows are pointing away from the engine (Page67), whilst the Gregories Book tells me to ensure that the arrows facing towards the center of the engine. (Page 11)

Which do I follow ?

Thrust Bearing information please

Thrust Bearing information please

Have been looking around for a new thrust bearing for the 253 3 speed manual for my HZ with a pull clutch.

Went into Repco and requested a GSB 319 but when it turned up it looked nothing like the one in the attached picture.

It was approx 1cm thick only.

Repco were confused when I showed them the picture as it does not match what they have in the books or on the screen of the PC.

Can anyone shed any light on this ?

Thanks

Carby backfire

Hi all,

'bought a 308 of Evilbay (was working when removed from car-yeah I know!:) ). Anyway there's a slight backfire through the carby (constant put-put backfire) unless the ignition is heavily retarded. +20 degree btdc. I've checked top dead centre, harmonic balancer alignment, and the advance curve (HEI ign) and the quadie was recently rebuilt and working fine on different motor.

Any ideas?

Cam timing?

Cheers,

Chairman

Electrical Doozy

Just fired up the HZ after replacing some cooling components, only to find that the alternator charge light remains on and wont go out. Also, the fuse for the dash instruments (15A) is blowing within a second or two of starting the engine; (havent yet confirmed if it blows when the "ignition" is turned on or if its happening during the start phase...... would this make a difference?).

apart from disconnect the battery lead, i havent touched any of the wiring. Where would be the likely places to look for a "short"??????

Faults

Hi there. I have a couple problems that i could use some help with.

My indicators are irregular, but i cannot seem to find the regulator. Can anyone help?

Also, my cigarette lighter, rear demister and heating all run off one fuse. None of them work, however the light inside the rear de-mister switch turns on, and when i use a volt meter over the fuse arch it reads 12v. Does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks in advance

A tale of two dizzies...

Hi,all.Me back for another whinge again.
Going from my experiences (therefore posts here) 3 months ago and also last week,I have another question to ask.
I have 2 Bosch electronic dizzies.One from my LH when I drove it for a couple weeks earlier this year,but not since.It had very lumpy cam,sports head etc red 202 with new electricals(leads,plugs etc) and 12v coil.but terrible pinging and a loss of power under load.The best the timing could be gotten was around 20-25BTDC.
Last week I also upgraded my HZ standard 202,from points to a 2nd-hand Bosch electronic dizzy.I have new electricals...ie.leads,cap,rotor button,NGK plugs(BPR5FS-15...recommended by NGK head office techie)I upgraded the almost new 12VOLT coil from a no-name(??) to a MSD Blaster-3 12V.

m20 side cover reinstallation

Hi all, I have to fix a couple of oil leaks coming from the side cover plate on my m20 4 speed. The gearbox is still in the car so I had remove the cover on my back under the car and as I took it out one of the selector forks came out and the other stayed in it's place.

The one that stayed in it's place was secured in the middle of two notched levers, no problem there as I know where to put it back. What I wanted to know is does the other selector fork/shaft assembly also go back into the centre notches of those levers?

Attached is a pic of where the shaft was on one side, so does the other also go in thr same spot on the other side when reistalling the cover/plate?

Cheers
