Didn't think to cut it open.I've got a big pipe cutter somewhere to open'er up if this is the norm.I think it's all fine tbh.Motor seems happy, only it's a bit tractor on cold start up but I guess that's to be expected with forgies. I read somewhere that JE pistons don't offset there gudgeon pin too which would help.Maybe when I change over to the fully synthetic it'll sound different when cold.

Kroozin Menace Donating Members 1,990 Member For: 13y 8m 27d Gender: Male Location: Sydney Posted 13/03/14 12:04 PM Share Posted 13/03/14 12:04 PM Rubber mounted surge tan to car using rubber washers for the bolts too, rubber mounted pump to surge tank also using rubber washers.... Still noisy as farkin sh*tehouse carnt of a thing...Come to the conclusion that the noise must be traveling through either the fluid/fuel and/or my Teflon braided line from surge tank to pump needs to be replaced with a rubber hose instead.So wish I never bought this aeromotive pita noisy pos! A controller would be the next best thing but I really don't like the idea of how it works + there exxy as. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
