  1. Tryed cleaning the needle valve and it worked! very dirty petrol… 😀
  2. Ok, i’ll check and replace the needle valve! 👍🏻 I allso have the same wire connected to the pump. the inerta switch works regardless of the white pink wire not connected.
  3. I just got my fuel pump working, ran it fore 30s and i flooded cyl 1-2… the sparks was out and fuel got all over 😅 So should the fule pump stop when it reach the right presure? Or is it just the needle valve in the carb that stops the fule? I have one wire down by the fule pump thats not conected, white and pink anyone know where it should go?
  4. I'll check the ignition switch and se if i can find the fault... 👌
  5. That explains why I didn't find one The pump, both the old and new one works with 12V directly from the battery, but nothing when put in place on the car. Tried to messure the current on all spots i can find and it's low at all places, it's just hard to folow the rout of the cable... It's low even going in to the "ignition box" and the interia switch.
  6. I have a 1981 dry sump and can't find the relay and fuse for the fuel pump. I'm only geting 10V at the pump...
  7. thanks for your concern 🙏🏻 everything is changed, I was just going to check the ignition and it was okay. But a few seconds on the starter did not give an effect on the oil guage.
  8. Should I be able to see oil pressure when only on the starter motor? Car not started in 31 years… Dry Sump Turbo -81
  9. Starting to get coold feet…. the car is a 1981 dry sump. witch pic is the right one fore that car if any… On My Aux the yellow dot and the timing mark are nothing like in the pic where they are close to eachother?
  10. Yes crank and cam ok. Yes aux dot on top. Leads moved to opposite pos. 👍🏻
  11. Ok, the car last run in 1991, and everything has been apart. Engine not put toghter by me. So I suspect that everything can be wrong here 😅 I guess I can try to start it then. And if its off by more or less then 180’ it will run bad or not at all.
  12. I removed the cam covers and the IN. Was fully closed and the EX was closed but about to open. Is that TDC? tryed to see ant comp but that was hard rotating by hand…
  13. Ohh, whats the easyest way to know that cyl 1 is compressing?
  14. The engine is in tdc but the rotor is not pointing like its supose to according to in the manual. and the timing gear allso seams off by 180’ can I just put the leads on the distribitur cap to cyl 1 at 10 o’clock like the rotor and so on or do I have to take the belt of and rotate the timing by 180’?
  15. Ok nice! How did you manage to rewire it to work like the stevens?
  16. So if i understand all this it’s upside down...
  17. If you manage to sort it out, please tell me how 😉
  18. And I don’t think they did that from the start at least I didn’t notis. Its like the arm on the motor does a ful rotation to get them up and down.
  19. Is it normal for the headlamp pod to first go down an inch before coming up? Both sides does it. When it comes down all things is normal. how can I fix it if it’s not normal...
  20. Mine is a 81, and I have tried to order it two times. But today I found the problem! The wiper didn’t stop beacuse the plastic switch was lose from the motor. It have to ”pres” the button to stop. Does anyone know if it’s supose to be glued in place on the motor?
  21. Mine doesen’t stop and I think it’s the module but SJ doesen’t have them any more, can I buy yours 😅
  22. Why is the badge under the Turbo Esprit logo and what kind of trim is around the head lamps?
  23. The one on the passenger side sure look original. So I just put carpet over bolts and stuff?!
  24. I got two questions for you 😀 1: Is there a wooden plate behind the pedals like on the pasanger side? 2: Is it ”isolation” on the floor or just on the sides?
