Re: 25th Anniversary 2014

Kent is a jaunt for me but i'd be up for it if we can get a bunch of us together.

I'd prefer something more central myself if possible though.

Hope to see you all soon.

Re: Found my ERA (

Where did you get the anti run on valve?

Re: Turbo bar gauge does not go beyond zero bar

I believe the ecu only monitors the boost pressure/revs and opens the modulator valve (over 3k revs i think) to keep the wastgate closed a little longer which then increases the boost pressure from 4.5psi to 7.5psi (i think).

Re: Turbo dump valve and fuel tank question.

I'm not sure what you are asking about the dump valve. There is a pressure release valve on the plenum chamber which is a sort of dump valve.

A problem i have is my vacuum to the distributor. I removed the thin pipe from the little elbow connecto...

Re: era R1096 for sale

Hi Ricky, I wish I had room for another car, if I did i'd have it. Unfortunately i'm getting ready to sell Julia's mini too as i'm getting her a fiat 500 Abarth. She wants something a little more modern, quieter, safer & quicker than her 1000 mini. I hope your ERA goes to a good home soon. All the b...
