    1HZ is breaking me and my tools.

    So far the radiator mounts, all wheel nuts, belt adjuster and timing belt cover bolts. I'm sure it will be the same for the cam bolt and water pump. All of the wheel studs will have to be replaced. Apparently all of the last repairs were done at a dealership.

    1HZ is breaking me and my tools.

    It's a normal thread, we have just managed to get it off by using a bar with a forklift. Who ever done the seal last put thread locker all over the bolt.

    1HZ is breaking me and my tools.

    Hi Everyone, Does anyone have a way of getting the harmonic ballancer bolt out. So far i have tried a 1/2" gun, 3/4" gun, 1" gun, 1" breaker bar, heat from an oxy and knocking it with the starter. I've broken sockets and bars, any help would be great. Thanks

    No high speed wiper

    Hi everyone, I've currently got no high speed on my wipers and need some help fixing it. So far I've removed the combination switch and cleaned all the contacts and replaced the motor. Is there anything else I should look at.

    2H Turbo?

    I've turboed my 2H. Goes good but still to slow for my liking. Got the kit from a place in Queensland and I am running a Madman engine monitoring system. I've kept the boost around 8-10psi.

    When you get an oil leak and the wife complains about the spots on the driveway "it's not leaking oil it's sweating power" and when you hit a hill and start throwing it back gears faster than the speed of light.
