Im pondering an lsd switch, but does it matter if the changeover diff came out of a ute? i.e do they interchange or is it a different piece o machinery? im a bit worried about this as i already bought it without thinkin to ask where exactly it came from.... =\

Hey guys, struck something strange tonight whilst sorting out the fuel system for my HK VN V6 project.
I have 3 hktg filler neck pipes from 3 seperate hktg vans.
The 1st pipe is just a filler pipe with no other outlets welded onto it. The fuel tank has an overflow tube in the top which runs to outside under the car.
The 2nd filler pipe has the filler plus an outlet which comes out of the side of the filler near the cap which then runs to the tank. This tank does not have an overflow to outside.
The 3rd filler pipe has 2 outlets, the same as above, plus another "upper vent pipe" outlet which goes to outside under the car.

hi all
on a red 253, what is the effect on the car if one spark plug isnt working at all?
ie how hard is it to start? and how well/bad should it idle and accelerate?
thanks guys

I was wondering if anyone could tell me what voltage I should have at the pos side of the coil on my hq 253. I think its supposed to be 10.8 is this correct?
By the way, congrats on the new sight Rusty.
My wife likes it too, as it keeps me away from the porn sights and stops me from talking to her about the HQ all the time.

Just a quick question.
Can you put a pre-pollution carby on an engine (253) that
has Pollution heads and manifold.
Would this be the same as blocking off pollution hoses on
the standard one.

Have just fitted a HQ 3speed into a 1980 comodore auto. Have used the HQ flywheel. Every thing fits but clutch dosn't work as there is a 10mm gap between thrustbearing and pressure plate fingers. What the ....!

Ok, an easy one for the experienced to start Sunday. I have developed a manifold leak and am going to replace the gasket. Should i use any particular sealer on the flanges? Any gaskets best? Cheers

My mate has a HQ tonner with a mildly worked 308, (cam, extractors, high flow exhaust etc). Hes thinking of supercharging it. Its got cold air intake and [Naughty Pottyword]. Hes wanting to run about 10 to 14psi through the old girl and wants me to ask all you what are the best superchargers/kits to put on it for max performance/economy.
Cheers lads
