    Hot running on freeway.

    Hey all. Took the sle to work this morning and the drive in was great. Coming home in 30degrees the temp ran near three quarters on the highway, sluggish and when back on normal roads the auto was disengaging from drive at the lights. Fresh rebuild with 600km. Fresh pump, radiator core...

    vh wagon blue 253, very smokey on coldstart and its not steam and the car gets smokey to

    Gonna sound weird but check the biggest rubber hose that goes from carby to front of the driver's side valve cover and make sure its not blocked and that the pcv valve still works. As I said weird but I had a similar issue

    Fan blower no longer blows.

    Ok so just to update. Got home and changed the fuse. Although it wasn't broken it was only rated to 5 amps. Put in the 16 amp and the fan worked again. A little squeaky like a mouse wheel. I only need to last till the rwc tomorrow. Here's hoping.

    Fan speed control is what worries me. Try getting one of those these days.

    Can tailpipes cause drone?

    Ok exceptionally late reply here but because the images are gone I can’t comprehend what combo was used. Was AFM disabled for the decent note( no drone). Cheers jc

    Noisy Lifters?

    It could just be what people think is lifter noise is quite often injectors ticking/pulsing. They can be noisy and is very common and normal from my experiences.
  14. jcvhsle

    What's this noise? Lifter tick?

    Ok, curious to hear the new video. I’ve just come back to a ve after a few years and I’m hearing all the usual noises, injector pulses, typical noisy ticks and so on. But one member mentioned a chirp sound. Would that chirp be like a similar sound to a noisy pulley on the belts like the pulley...

    253 rebuild not starting.

    From my experience 17 pins between timing marks. That picture is only 14.
  17. jcvhsle

    Help Need.

    Thanx guys. Finding that what is available for vb-vh is worth a small fortune compared to rocking upto the wreckers and grabbing any tank upto vs. only issue with doing that is using the sender that goes with the different tank and then calibrating the fuel gauge to suit. Just have to keep...

    Help Need.

    Hi folks it’s been awhile since I last visited. I am now on my third sle after some personal struggles which left me needing to clear out my other cars. I have since acquired a new vh but I am in desperate need of a new fuel tank. The previous owner ran the car on gas and gave no love to the...

    Traumatic woes

    First thing I always check when jammed in first and won’t change is the detent switch.
  20. jcvhsle

    Why.

    Genuine Bosch rebuilt and curved to match the cam
  21. jcvhsle

    Why.

    Full rebuild, everything is new. Blocking the vac advance made no difference. Will reset dizzy again for the 4th time.
  22. jcvhsle

    Why.

    All new, full rebuild
  23. jcvhsle

    Why.

    Ok guys firstly, been awhile since I've been on. I recently installed my new motor. Set the motor to tdc 1 to install dizzy. All good. When it's running the timing mark doesn't even register in the the degree indicators, thoughts please. Crank and cam was set by the old dot method and nine...

    Alternator is fine, it was checked. Thanks for the suggestions it appears to be the abs. Will source a newer one. Cheers all

    Xmas lights

    Alt is good as just changed battery. Bit hard to disconnect abs while driving, as it only does it while car is in motion. Thanx for your thoughts tho. It only happens spasmodically and only for a short period of time and then resets. Might see if there is a spare abs mod. Down at my mates...

    Xmas lights

    Hey guys some thoughts please. My 276000 km wagon has started to display a series of lights on the dash randomly. The sequence consists of all orange colour lights (track control, engine lite etc) plus it then displays the airbag light and sometimes the oil light and then cut cruise control if...
