Porks bike carbs and boost project

Was jus having trouble getting chain on one of the cam sprockets, then realised it helps if I took cam out then put sprocket on chain then back on cam,
Live and learn ay!

 

[frank]

post a pic of the lobes at tdc when you,ve done neil

 

[pork]

Just so I'm not being stupid....as I've never done this before.......I've lined up marks on chain, turned engine round a few times......how many revs till the marks line up on the sprockets again?

Engine turns round fine without anything catching....so I presume everything is ok

the coloured links shuffle round a bit each time you turn the engine eh neil, you would have to work it out mathematically

 

[pork]

Pfft, no chance right now

If I put chain on in right place, and it turns over fine, it should be ok....right? Lol

 

[pork]

Lobes at tdc

 

[frank]

looks close to me mate are there 5 links inside the 2 dots on the top sprockets ?

 

[pork]

I got 6 ??

 

[pork]

Nope, sorry, 5

 

[pork]

Was looking at the outer part of chain

 

[frank]

inside like this ?

in

 

[pork]

Yeah, was looking at wrong part of chain

Inside link bits, there are 5

 

[frank]

looks ok to me mate you could double check by gauging when the lobes touch the buckets on the other tdc (the overlap, where all 4 valves are slightly open at once)
there should be about 20 deg either side of tdc (40 deg of overlap)
i test by seeing if the bucket will turn freely, then it tightens as the lobe makes contact

 

[pork]

Cool, il check that too.

Was doing loads of google searches on how to do this, your name comes up everywhere .....so thanks

 

[h701micra]

Ive got this I use to help me time my engines

Its a rough guide

 

[pork]

That looks like a proper way to do things

I did take loads off pictures........but didn't save when I got replacement phone!

 

[h701micra]

Pen and paper always beats technology
Feel free to pinch it

 

[pork]

Flange came today so can finish exhaust manifold tomorrow

Should pick up flywheel too

 

[h701micra]

Pleased its coming together
Soon be time to tackle that ever nearing ignition issue

 

[pork]

True!

 

[pork]

Oh yeah, forgot to ask, does anyone want the old ma10 turbo manifold I made?

If so make me an offer

 

[h701micra]

The flange fits... t25? T3??

 

[pork]

T2 type

 

[Belly93]

how much you after for it neil?

 

[pork]

Think it's just been snapped up already mate

 

[Belly93]

no bother

 

[pork]

Got a flywheel !!

 

[MicrAde]

Got a flywheel !!

Good.....get on with it

 

[pork]

Will once I've finished work

 

[pork]

Aaah problems!

I've bought this flywheel, but the clutch doesn't fit it,

The flywheel is off a cg10, and clutch is for a cg10 too, but the clutch bolt holes don't match the flywheel.

Which bit is wrong for my build?!?

 

[h701micra]

Depends... is it a 160mm clutch? If its a 180mm clutch you have a later model cg10 which won't fit
If it is a 160mm clutch your flywheel is wrong

 

[pork]

I have a 160 mm clutch, so the flywheel is wrong ?

Can I modify the larger clutch to fit the flywheel and my gearbox?

 

[frank]

pre-face 1.0 has a shallow dish ed (and 160mm clutch)
f/l 1.0 and all 1.3,s are deeper, with a 180mm clutch (f/l 1.0 is 2kg lighter)

 

[h701micra]

Correct... I think the ring gear is on the wrong side too on the later ones?
If not... it is possible to modify the flywheel but you have to pretty precise

 

[pork]

This is what I have on now,

As I've never seen either fly before, I wasn't sure what I was looking at, I asked for a flywheel from the years I was after and he said this was it

Dam!

So, should I try and return this to a rather mental scrap man, or what can I do about clutch?

 

[frank]

the 98 to 2000 1.0 f/w are salable neil, they,re 2kg lighter than the 1.3 ones, and direct fit

 

[h701micra]

I wouldn't recommend re drilling for the clutch.
I'd say get the larger clutch but I cant be sure it will work for you. Thats a frank question

aye the dish is too deep (not enough throw on the clutch arm, or slack in the cable)
wrong spline
starter/ring-gear mesh issues
and the diaphram fingers wont contact the smaller thrust bearing

 

[pork]

Double dam

Anyone want a flywheel then?

Doubt il be able to return it as he was quite clear on his refund policy

Knew you'd know

 

[pork]

Jus spoke to them over the phone, he has a micra that he's willing to break for the flywheel......if I buy gearbox too

Done me there!

I do want a 5 speed......so I guess I might have to do it!

 

[pork]

What checks can I do to make sure it's the right one?

From what I've gathered, the cg10 pre f/l box is the same as the k10 , so the drive shafts and mounts will bolt up the same?

Is this correct?

If not, I won't get it

 

[frank]

you need the mounts too neil, then turn the gearchange n/s to e/w

 

[pork]

Near side and rear mounts?

 

[frank]

Near side and rear mounts?

deffo rear, its a different bracket that bolts to the diff, not sure about n/s tho

 

[pork]

Will drive shafts be ok?

 

[frank]

Will drive shafts be ok?

aye, i have a K10 shaft on mine atm neil

 

[pork]

You the man frank!

 

[pork]

Eeeerrerruuugghhhh

It's the wrong box, it's from a cg13 !

So gunna get original flywheel refunded too

So still need a flywheel !!!!

 

[h701micra]

I'm up scrappys tomorrow for more scooby bits but thats my secret... I'll pop over and dismantle a micra or 2 for you and chuck you a message
