The AAC looks smaller too

FCID Question
Thanks rolandas. Now I'm wondering what the difference is between them and which is best
-
FCID Question
Not even sure if I'd put it on the car, it feels soft to press in though, like it'd have no problem working. The FICD connector isn't in the best shape though, not sure if I can just pull it off and put a new on on maybe

So would the one in my link do for stuff on the zed? Not really looking to use it for anything else
-
FCID Question
Yeah, both the end on the main unit and on the accc that connects to it move in and out. There's a big spring inside the main unit. See here

FCID Question
You mean this bit? I thought they were all the same. I just don't know how to get the bits I need out lol. I just went out to see if it clicks when touching the battery but nothing at all. I'm assuming I'm doing that right by using both the + and - to the connector
-
FCID Question
Yeah, I checked the one on the spare I'm playing with and the o-ring on the adjusting screw was spot on. I'm gonna have to go and get some wires and crocodile clips or something to try them out with the battery
-
FCID Question
Here's the pictures So, there's this bit in the main unit. Not sure if this bit is meant to come out of not? This is the AAC and I assume its the bit in the middle of here that's meant to come out but it's stuck. Been trying to pull it out with pliers but it won't move. Is it a screw in bit? If so ill use the neighbours vice again lol

FCID Question
Ill take a picture of what I mean. Won't be long

FCID Question
They fell out of the FICD but the AAC is completely jammed. I've tried pulling it with stuff too but it wouldn't budge. Not to worry though, it's just a spare one I had
-
FCID Question
Sorry, not too sure if I've been clear here. I've taken the AAC off. In picture 2 it shows the sring the things taken out. That what I'm wanting to do but can't seem to work out how the get the spring and things out

How's this? http://www.pexcom.com.au/z32cms/e107_images/PTU%20-%20How%20to%20install%20a%20Series%202%20Power%20Transistor%20Unit.pdf

FCID Question
So the one on the car isn't clicking (checking with some diagnostic software). I have another one spare so thought I'd take it apart, give it a good clean then possibly use the one. Also serves as a practice before doing it on the actual one that's currently on the car. I've managed to get the FICD apart as when I unscrewed it, the insides fell out (I've now either lost the spring or it was already missing). But the AAC, how do I get the insides of that out to clean? The link you gave (I've read it loads) doesn't tell you how to do this bit
-
FCID Question
My revs drop a little mate, here's a video I just made I have another unit on an old plenum, I've taken it apart but I don't get how to take the AAC and FCID apart, so how to get to the springs etc. any idea?

What did you do to your zed today?
I've always wanted to see one of those in the flesh mark
-
Anyone know this Z?
Pmsl, I always find that standing with only 1 shoe on works too
-
FCID Question
Yeah, it jumped up like its meant to. Was just when I couldn't hear the FCID clicking it made me wonder if that was the route cause. I still think there's an air leak somewhere but even when I was putting smoke in it today I could see/hear any leaks
-
FCID Question
Been doing a boost leak check today and had the car plugged in to some software or other. Anyway, the one I was using had an FCID test (basically turning it on and off). I understand I should be able to hear it clicking when doing this but I can't. So, before I go replacing/taking it out for a good clean, I want to know what affects that actually has on the car. I know it let's the revs drop when turning on the blowers, but is that it or could it have some affect on the running of the car in anyway? The reason I ask is that I can't find much wrong with the car and can't get the IAA to sit at 15, it constantly wants the move slightly when idling. Also the revs don't sit spot on and they seem to be slightly shaky if that makes any sense. Not bothering me too much, just trying to make sure everything is perfect really.

I'll have to take it off to see why it's so wonky. One the the brackets keeping it up is too low
