Charl: My rebuild and questions

Yep, prices were there too - I used to get a kick out of browsing it - the prices were sooo funnnnyyy 🙂 I mean, ha ha ha! R60k for the top half of the engine...

hey dislex

i now have access to an uncapped, extremely fast (broadband), download server setup through my brother. it can download video faster than realtime!!!

aaaaannnnnnyywwwwwwwaaaaayyyyy...

please post the link to that nissan FAST database program thingy that you have so i can get a hold of it. thats the 1.5gb one that you mentioned somewhere right???

also, nissan wont have the parts listed locally, but all you have to do is get them to load the part number onto their system. once that is done, when ordering they will notice that they dont have stock, and will then order the stock from nissan japan. should take about 21 working days for shipping, and is shipped at their expense.

that is what i heard last...

as for the injectors - the longer number is most likely the part number!

here you go:

If you don't come right i'll wack it on a DVD and give it to you when next i see (meet) you 🙂

Ha ha, clever...................... so we just have to do the think work for them then, lol! 😀

never mind

And now calibrator? 😕
Is it me? 🙄 😳

Here be the numbers on my fuel pump:
On the litlle whit plastic bit its written in blue : 33705 270
And ingraved in the steel part is:(Takes deep breath) 993762061 33905 N2189

are hydrolic lifters parts that need replacing as often like bearings or something like that... or should they be good for plenty km's? they're not warn on the outside, but I'm wondering about the inside. don't know anything bout these lifters. are their tell tale signs that let u know somethings wrong with them?

what's the sensor for just underneath the intake manifold? it goes into the block by pot number 3. mine didn't have a wire atatched to the sensor

KNOCK SENSOR - Detenation?? 🙄 🙄 🙄

While we on the 20 questions thing, Charl wanted to ask how the throtel body sensor works and what it does presisely, what would it influence if Charl shifted it to the back or the front.

You only need to replace/service lifters if they are noisy, they are about R300 from nissan and you have 16 of them!

i recently heard those damn lifters are R550 each. somebody recently went to nissan to ask!

thats R8800.00 for a set.

its cheaper to buy a whole import ca18det, use the lifters that are good, and sit with a whole bunch of spares in a box in your garage!

maybe somebody should do that... open a used nissan spares shop, buy a crap load of import motors - break them up - and sell the working bits to okes like us!!!

I did ??? 🙄 😕 😉

Yup u did....it seems ur ulsimers are acting up again.....focus man...fight it

My knock sensor didnt have the wire attached to it. Did it fall of or was disconnected because im not running the nissan management system.
Just want to know if i have to connect it?

Without a knock sensor, the ECU cannot determine if the car is running optimally. It normally advances timing till it senses knock, then retards it quite a bit, then slowly advances again, and so on. That way, if you get higher octane petrol (e.g. 95 or you add octane booster or methanol or fuel system cleaner), then it can make the most of it by advancing timing.

So, YOUR CAR IS NOT RUNNING OPTIMALLY 🙁

Please remember that Charl is running Dicktator and it has absolutely no input for knock sensing.
In fact if you want knock sensing in a stand alone you need to start thinking spending upwards of R25 000.

Charl please do yourself a favour and download the CA18 FSM from the nizmo forum.
Read it thoroughly, trying to rebuild your engine from internet advice is a recipe for disaster as it is full of know it alls who actually have no experiance and very little knowledge except dreck they regurgitate as fact.

funny that?!?!?!
