Howdy RAD! I was curious if I could see if you have any parts I might need for my FB. I need a fuel level sender and right now my only real bet is buying a brand new one from Japan for like $90
I think your MAF sensor placement is going to be a bit of a problem with its proximity to the turbo. I would do a 90 degree elbow off the turbo and put the maf in the straight section between radiator support and the elbow. You want it in as long/straight of a place as you can. This will reduce turbulence and improve idle/light load drivability.
Just need a stick with a line drawn on it for a gas gauge and you will be full custom! lol My 72 super beetle rally car in college had the dip stick. 👍
Hey rad I’ve been watching your videos for a while and I have a 1985 rx7 and I can’t get it to start I’ve poured gas in the carb and It has popped like it wants to start but just won’t wondering if you have anything to help thanks
Not an expert but I'd expect it's likely flooded if you're having to resort to doing that. Rotary's don't easily clear being flooded due to the combustion chamber being essentially sealed from the environment unlike a piston engine which could have valves open when the engine is stopped to allow the excess fuel to evaporate out for the combustion chamber. If I was you I'd try to deflood the car. I would try taking the spark plugs out and drying them as best as possible. While the plugs are out you can hold the throttle open and crank so push any excess fuel out of the plug holes and exhaust. Make sure you disconnect the ignition fuse or coil during this to prevent an ignition source potentially causing a fire. if the car has an electric fuel pump it would be best to also turn that off if you can. Once you no longer see fuel spraying out of the spark plug holes you can add a tiny amount of 2 stroke oil into the holes with a syringe and reinstall the plugs. Reconnect the coil and attempt to start the car possibly with a bit of ether type starting fluid if it needs it. With any luck that should get it started. Keep it running until it's warm to make sure it's cleared the flooding and try not to shut it off while cold as that increases the odds of it flooding once again. Good luck.
@@gagesilveira6694 thanks for the tip but I’m not sure that’s what it is when we first pulled the plugs oil was on them checked the compression and it seemed to be good I’ll try it sometime but it sat for around 4 years it’s my grandpas but I’m trying to get it running he said before he parked it that it would randomly cut off I don’t know if it has to do anything with it but I’m not sure
Throttle body size becomes even more interesting when you compare potential flow rates vs runner/ throttle body size. A small increase from 2.75" to 3" results in nearly 25% potential flow rate increase....
Hello, I’m changing the water pump and gasket on my 1982 Mazda rx7 gsl MT , and I’m having some trouble getting it out cause the pulley is hitting the bottom crank shaft pulley and doesn’t let me pull the water pump out; not enough clearance between the two pulleys. What you recommend? You should know I don’t have the air pump assembly on my car; I did the whole racing beat carburetor swap.
I'm in desperate need of a complete 1985 gsl-se for my build. I'm building a 1979 Toyota Corolla for road race car. The Toyota is a 4x114 bolt pattern. From what I'm researching the 85 GSL SE is 4x114 and limited slip. Exactly what I'm searching for and can't find anything online. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
@@RADPotential yes full stock motor with goopy seals solid corners and racing beat templates...i got all the pics also running versatuner oem ecm with 2 additional injectors underneath the plenum......
I had the pleasure of driving a low mileage, well cared for Mazdaspeed RX8 (very rare). The stock renesis definitely makes over 200HP. I'm really hoping that if I watch enough RU-vidrs working on Renesis motors, I might be able to convince myself to pull the trigger on an RX8. I'm really loving your channel dude.
** For combustion engine, exhaust gas only require 65 to 70% of the intake airflow to ensure efficient combustion, proper scavenging exhaust gas removal, and gas velocity to improve overall engine efficiency.
years ago i used 2 ford 5 liter throttle bodies on a home made intake with a street ported 13b 6 port we made between 160 to 180 HP.. I think you guys are being stingy with the air intake volume ..I would use a lot more intake air(BIGGER ) I have a 12a I built with a Total Needle bearing e shaft and rotors the intake is a h Racing Beat Holly with an adapter to use 2 - sequential 44mm Down draft Webers..these Engine need Air..in and out.
