If for any reason you ever need to sell which i hope not name your price ill get a loan lol,

Looms shweeet!

Video's you can only watch on a computer mate (certainly not on an iphone anyway!)

I cant see me selling it for a long time yet... if ever. Theres plans in the future to take it even further but ill be happy with its current spec for at least the next few years to come!

Regarding fitting your walbro josh, what did you do fit it fitting into oe casing as its abit smaller and the bottom filter?

jpsaxo 7th March 2013 11:29

It was a fcuking' nightmare mate, lots of modification and custom fitting but it does work and fit in with a lot of fannying around

Well worth spending the time and effort to fit it into the standard unit to keep things nice and tidy :)

And the original fuel hose being glued onto the plastic joiners at the top of the casing. It just the bottom filter thats the pain!

You have to DIY the filter / bag at the bottom as its clearly way too big, stupidly I didn't get any pics when we did mine as it took pretty much all day to do it & I was due to be down at Sandys in Cornwall @ 9am to tweak the map the following morning

The hose on the top is the simple part, just pull it off (takes a while and make sure you don't break it), then secure it onto the new pump. Also the new pump isn't secured down with the standard clips because of the pick up at the bottom being too 'proud' so you have to come up with a solution to hold the pump down as well

This is the only picture I took doing mine;

Yep completely agree mate, better to have it in-tank though than having untidy fuel lines everywhere

UPDATE:

Its been over a month sooooooo;

Box off for a check over...



And clutch cover off to be changed from the Red springs (current) to the lightest race clutch springs that Helix do to make it more driveable....





And a nice new set of lightweight wheels ;)



p.s. check out in the background the amount of redundant wiring stripped from the interior loom!!!

MR_N 17th April 2013 15:33

New wheels looks hot.

BIG 17th April 2013 18:11

New rimms :D

AlexB 17th April 2013 22:14

:( i miss those
I want them back

jpsaxo 18th April 2013 12:22

New wheels will be nice and light that's my main concern ;)

Also;

Gearbox casing has cracked :panic::panic:


sje00 18th April 2013 14:52

Is that the clutch lever?
That's where mine cracked if so.

adamskiTNR 18th April 2013 15:05

I guess that area is a likely area to fail, what with the massive increase in loading from the uprated clutch, must fatigue the aluminium significantly. At least the rebuild with the softer springs should help a touch.

jpsaxo 18th April 2013 15:06

Yep thats the one Sonny, I've never seen them go there before. Good job I'm making the clutch lighter by the looks of it lol

BIG 18th April 2013 19:18

Woo lucky you took it off in the firstlplace then.

What colour with the wheels jp?

welshpug 18th April 2013 19:31
