Misfire help needed
If anybody wants toi check an injectors firing in the car,remove the spark plug and injector plug,trigger it with a 9 volt battery and some wire,using a torch you will see the fuel atomising into the cylinder.

Another so called forged Ztech engine revealed
Judging by the lines that far up the bore those rings were broken on assembly,they could never score that there other wise,ive seen cleaner pistons in high mileage diesels,thats a mess.Its awful to find piss poor workmanship like that.I did another re rebuild on another one of said specialists engines last year,that was scrap too,crank and block got binned.No forged rods,broken rings on second hand pistons.Thank god they are gone.At leat you no now and can get it done right.

tool recomendations
Stanley stuff is great and is the largest tool maker in the world,they own Mac tools too which have the market share in the USA,the ratchets are fine tooth which makes them stronger and easy to use in tight spaces.Get 3/8 as half inch is overkill.I rarely use half inch on most truck jobs in my day job.

Members Help
My son owns a Tamiya Blackfoot rc car,on Sunday he was playing with it in the garden,anyway he brought it in downhearted as the front suspension had collapsed.A suspension screw had come adrift ! remembering that Mr Derby on here owned a model shop,quick text to him and he knew exactly what i was after,Today a parts bag arrived with several screws and lots of other useful bits and pieces for his car and he wouldnt take a penny.Mark thank you once again my 7 year old is made up and so am i :clap: Another example of members help on here when lately it seems negative transactions have shadowed a lot of good deeds.

I cant see how Mark,you must have hands like a baby,remember the pivot is underneath the support plate,and one of the stick bolts is underneath also.
