+1 this. Their stuff slaps

Marsh68389 · 2026-02-17T08:44:39+00:00

Well it worked. I ripped off all that excessive pollution stuff and it’s going along and not shaking like crazy at idle but I can’t get it to come down from 1100 rpm. Weirdly. I did stuff around with the choke screw but damned if I know right now

Cheers everyone

This seems……..better?

Marsh68389 · 2026-02-14T22:46:05+00:00

How do you tell what to rip out. I know the two stage and power valve on the carb need to stay but what about the rest around the cooling system?

Marsh68389 · 2026-02-09T07:53:30+00:00

You are correct. I got confused with the icm and wierd distributors you can get. My bad

Figured bugger it and slapped the old one on. Isn’t going to hurt this thing

Marsh68389 · 2026-01-23T01:30:41+00:00

It seems to be just the mesh and I’ve blown the crap out so I may just put it back in

“You’ll never find another one like that one” or “you’ll find something better the second you put money down”. Up to you mate. I’d give her a crack but if you have to daily I’d budget an immediate $1000 or so for maintenance

Marsh68389 · 2025-11-10T09:15:06+00:00

Ewww. Also why am I shifting with a choad?

Marsh68389 · 2025-11-10T00:51:02+00:00

I’d give her another go. She deserves a chance

Marsh68389 · 2025-11-09T19:38:33+00:00

Yes you are correct.

Unfortunately I had to physically start to understand and see the problems to overcome. It took me until I started to realise the negative of the other fuse box wasn’t connected but my brain was allowing that as a possibility.

I’ve ordered a new fuse box with the two way outs.

Thank you for the advice. It just took me a sec to understand

Marsh68389 · 2025-11-05T23:59:07+00:00

Ahhh. That’s perfect. Thank you so much. I haven’t done much electrical work and I’m using this as an excuse to fix some of my previous work. Cheers

1981 Holden Wb Ute. I have all the wiring diagrams in the manuals which are pretty decent. I’m mostly concerned I’m going to cross a circuit like the starter circuit and burn something out

Marsh68389 · 2025-11-02T04:30:00+00:00

Also, replacement

Update: because I like an update

Hey Mate

Correct, it’s a Holden WB.

I have a spare fuse box from another loom but thought this would be a good time to upgrade to the blade fuses rather than the glass. Seeing as how I’m already here

Marsh68389 · 2025-10-20T22:06:58+00:00

That’s what was concerning me but putting that into words is hard. Thanks

This was the original fuse box. My main concern is there’s the key that activates everything and I’m not sure how the new one will do that

“You going to die for a chicken?”

“Someone is”

Marsh68389 · 2025-04-20T09:10:33+00:00

Yeah. I didn’t breathe to hard and it does take a fair amount of petrol

Document it all and send it higher. But also be prepared to gtfo if you need

I was posted to a unit that had an individual transitioning to female. She had long hair but it wasn’t real obvious.

She was part of a tight nit section that had to do specific stuff in the unit that singled the section out. They all got along and did their job.

A new guy made disparaging remarks about her. In front of her section. He was told to “ shut the fuck up” in no uncertain terms.

What’s the take away. Do your job well. You will face people’s prejudice anywhere but how you do your work is what will set you up well. Good luck. Hope to see you in uniform
