So whats a good upgrade for a Widebody starion 2.6 engine ...using the stock exhaust but multipoint injection manifold??.

Yep that was the problem. Thanks - so solved I think I was using the sigma manual when i should have used the magna manual when reinstalling the dissy. However even with the magna gregorys it was still about a tooth out in the end even when it was followed so go figure!. Was good to drive her again ...

I mean that when we had the auto elect over, we installed a spare coil i had lying around (it was off a diffent magna and had a differnt pin connection set up)...and this got the car running ...so the problem was the coil. BUT then the car idle not well as described . Then I bought a brand new one f...

Still got this problem!!!!

Is it the timing maybe out.

Yes mate thanks . The green struts ,brake rotors, pads, calipers are all there about 2-3 yrs now gathering dust. Finding the time is hard...hopefully over my 3 weeks off after the 17th Dec. I'll get her going at least, with the new head...and possibly resurrect the turbo / intercooler idea at the sa...

Been a while. Blast from the past. Starion long gone Matt. Finances looking better...just had a brand new pajero head , new valves and TR/S roller rockers/cam done . Changing head over Christmas period ...ARP head studs and ADUSA 2.6 head gasket going on at the same time. Should breathe better than ...

Tried wwith a replacement dissy that day.Still no good . Had to get a autoelectrician and we found it was the coil in the end and so after all this i replaced the coil today .$75 for the cheapest new.Still not Bosh $130! Now we know that she was running a bit sick now .Its only idling at 600 rpm and...

Went to maccas to get a burger its on a main road,highway, maccas ,i saw this truck with cubes on it was like cool walked over to it to have a peep, looked at this one cube and cried , saw an old lancer badge, managed to pinch it, amazing it survived , the truck driver came outa maccas and I stoope...

thanks .......I have so far replaced

transistor
ecu
going to try with a new dissy in the morning

oh dear...significant part of motoring history there.
Must have died happy.

Would you get it checked over by a head guy?...or just bolt it on after having it resurfaced in your opinion cheers

Last Thurs did a compression check on the engine in the Lancer .(Its a 2.6 with TS ECU all Magna ) Now unable to get her started ...thought it was a dud battery but no. We are getting no pulses to the coil...but control relay and pumps are OK.He says the dissy is getting a pulse out. Is it worth rep...

actually, when i attended the jap classic day here in brissie earlier this year , this fella had a rebuilt Datsun stanza. The mirrors on mine are definately from one he said .(They came in a box as spares when I bought her)They rare great , chrome on metal AND sorta squarish though unlike the origin...

nope, i did not. i cant imagine that would run well, if at all, as it has no MAP sensor it would have no idea how much fuel to put in as it would be running on a factory set value for that RPM point. Cheers , its just that that I have my TR EFI 2.6 conversion running without the AFM ( and o2 sensor...

it ran EXTREMELY lean. if you want a grenade try it, otherwise go aftermarket.

the std injectors cant supply enough fuel for more than approx 4 psi either...

...did you try it with the AFM disconnected from the loom?

Definately scarcer ...same with galants and Lancers.Most will probably come back from China as Cherrys.
Even between me and dad .We had 4 Lancers ...now we're down to 2 and some panels/interior bits.(N.B. 1 given,1 sold ...not crushed!)

Should go...the QLD one was good .
Fly the flag!!!

G'day Folks, The Vic Pajero forums referred me to your fantastic looking forum for advice rebuilding a 2.6L Astron currently in my 1986 Pajero. The old girl has done 350,000km. Does not blow smoke, no idea of the condition of the internals though, and I only have very basic mechanical experience an...

Just bought my Dec 94 magna head
$55.Pick and pay.
bonus _looks new somehow.M9

Maybe I should replace the rocker gear/cam ...or whole head .?????????????(I have been quoted $200 labour cost for the rocker gear.)

They are high impedance type...I kept the spec sheet that came with them and its what is says in that colomn.
Actually they are "Siemens -3172 Deka series"
Putting $100 aside for a TR head.Next weekends job.!

thanks very much!.You're great
I will measure the resistance across the pins tonite .J

hi there . I have been playing around with the Lancer again (been a while), in an attempt to get her running better (see in my "builds" history!). Now she's got a 2.6Lt turbo motor that I've removed the turbo from and have a TR/S injection system and extractors on her. Problem is it is rea...

i think those off a L200 is the same?.

I had one on my sigma turbo some years back. You can get good power out of one...if its set up right and there are a few mods you can do on one to get more...like everything i guess! You'll need to get it recoed to start with and then find a dyno tuner that knows them for setting up at a certain psi...

Not bad ...yep they drive great...unusual colour scheme, maybe the top was done blue to cover over crazing/sundamaged silver by the previous owner.

Is that silver trim over the wheel arches?

Yes its pretty fast Dave .Suspensions pretty hard though ...but great in the wet!.
Fuel economys really good surprisingly ...get under 10 L/100km around town so long as you keep the revs low.

A worthy replacement til I get the Lancers fuel woes sorted
