Hey all, Im in the process of refurbishing/overhauling a HVAC box prior to doing a climate control conversion. One thing I havent been able to find is the size/type of sensors/resistors for the evaporator temp sensor & the amibent air sensor. Does anyone know what type of sensors these are...

Lads, I was inspired by The Stig and got an oil analysis done on my L67. Just clicked over 310ks on the engine. Im well impressed by the report and piece of mind for $50 was well worth it! Might stave off the power bug for a bit, not sure how the engine will handle internal mods, but am...

Afternoon Lads, I've done some searching and I have my suspicions about the problem, however, i wanted to get some others advice before I go any further. Problem: Ute starts and idles fine. Free revs when parked fine. When I city drive (stop/start/light throttle) it runs fine too. Now...

Folks, help me out here..... :bomb: My l67 is chewing fuel and I narrowed it down to a possible dodgy fuel regulator. Changed that bad boy last night, reset ECU and now idles rough and blowing black smoke out the back again. New plugs, leads, o2 sensors. Coils, DFI, CTS, fuel pump are...

Hey guys, Chasing a bit of advice/clarification here. I blew my old engine (v6) due to coolant lose; cooked it. I have since replaced with a l67. Question is, as a **** tin of coolant went through the exhaust, would this have ruined the o2 sensors? I have read a little...

Hey guys and Gals, I have tried to search this a few times but haven't found an answer and I know it'll be something stoopid. When I accelerate from a stand still with a little more throttle than normal; ie pulling out into traffic etc There is a metallic ting sound. Only does it once...

Hey folks, Need some advice/tips/help...... I have snapped off the threaded part of the bolt that the lower half of the rear shock mounts too. I can still slide the shock onto the fat part of the bolt, however, no thread = no secure shock. Does anyone have any tips or options on...

Hi guys, I know this has been covered numerous times and I have searched the topic heaps. I just want to confirm, I know VT V6 and on injectors will fit into a VS V6. What I wanted to confirm is whether I will need a new fuel rail as the newer fuel regulator is a different design to...

For all the LPG gurus/installers out there, Our VX is not showing the LPG level on the fuel gauge, just sits at full and the computer calculates DTE as if its full. Petty appears to read as normal ie needle moves and DTE calculates reading. Just not gas. So after the bride running out...
