4g32 tappets/lifters etc

Hey guys just a quick question to save me some effort having a look myself. Have an LC lancer with a 4g32 (belt) and the ticking noise is hideous upon acceleration - i imagine this is due to worn or out of adjustment lifters. Are they adjustable or am i up for a new set of lifters to put in? If so, ...

Re: Annual All Jap cruise

Being literally the only Old school mitsi/chrysler out of 175 odd cars you guys missed out on a good day. Plenty of old datto's and mazdas but surprisingly no old mitsi love. The generational gap was amusing - no one under 30ish even giving the LC a glancing look, everyone over 30ish stopping and ha...

Well the new pump is in, retimed and running as it was but this time round with a functional fuel return line.
No idea if it would even affect economy but it works. Just has to hold up till the '64 goes in

4g32b fuel pump

So the fuel pump on the LC decided to give out on the way home today and after driving across brisbane to get a replacement i find that the one theyve given me is different, however im fairly certain theyve given me the right one...

Re: Power steering conversion

Assuming that everything will bolt in (which is very well could not on an older car like this) Youll need a power steering pump bracket, the castings in the block to bolt it on or to make it work, the pump itself, a longer belt to accomodate (and possibly a tensioner and pulley if it is a separate b...

Re: ITB selection? wanted to buy. Your thoughts!

Id say go for a twin Dellorto 40s or 45s but if the twin manifold is as hard to find as the 4g32 its not really feasable.
Dellorto > Weber all day every day though

Re: GA Galant Speedo Not woking

Simple test is just unscrew the cable out of the gearbox and pull/rotate the internal cable. That will tell you if its the cable or the transducer (speedo drive in gearbox) as that can be a fault point as well.

Helpful lady at repco said they don't have a listing, rung a few places including Bosch who make a distributor for the 4g32 and they can't help. So I'm all out of ideas.
