V8 re-build

<< < (4/5) > >>

DISCO-CHRIS:
GOOD QUESTION?
NOT TOO SURE.
IT,S DESIGNED TO FIT OVER THE STANDARD DIZZY CAP AND THEN YOU NICK LITTLE HOLES FOR EACH HT LEAD TO COME THROUGH AND SECURE AROND THEM WITH A SMALL CABLE TIE.
IT,S MADE FROM SILICONE SO IS QUITE PLYABLE.

They're made from dog poo, mine lasted 6 months and then melted into a sticky mass I couldn't shift.  I won't be buying another.

Err Bulli care to elaborate?
I'm pretty sure that engine braking is a result of engine compression and is modified by your choice of gear.

Bulli:
well im not sure if its a design feature or if mine is weird but i have had a v8 Lr before on carbs and the engine had the tendancy to run away when on steep decents. I had to use cadence braking a few times. The disco is superb and as slow as most of the diesels i go out playing with - simply stick it in first and let the engine braking do the rest- couldnt do that most of the time with my old one.
Me and rolla have noticed it and both well impressed with the performance over my previous " well set up carbs"
