Re: 73T clock stopped. Solution?

I removed the guts from my clock and fitted a quartz replacement movement like a kitchen clock. I wired the 12v feed via a high value resistor ( 10M ohms perhaps) and made no attempt to drop the voltage to 1.5V. I made the 911 hands fit and it just works and has done for years.

Re: my non-Porsche picture of the day

The dark metallic green car does normally run a BMW bike engine, as quite a few modified cars do now.
Did he make it to the main display on the Sunday ? Never a bad turn out for a little car that you never see any more [emoji848][emoji41]

Re: my non-Porsche picture of the day

It has seat belts now ( harness) .
Twin 40’s mapped ignition, lowered. All body work done and painted by himself on a shell dragged out of a field. Probably just under 100 bhp and ~600 kg or a bit less. Just done his 1st track laps and now keen to do more. Not too much choice in Cornwall I guess.

Re: Replace 1970 expansion tank?

I did just join the pipes together, not thinking about the routing and got a similar fuel leak problem when filling the tank. I have since added a high point in the link pipe, higher than the fill neck and now no problem. I did get rid of the seemingly empty box.

Re: Rev counter with DTA ECU

You need a transistor to drive the relay. I used a 2N5551 i think. The ECU won’t drive it directly. Did you manage to find the post ? All the information is there :)
