Re: Engine V Belt Pulleys
Last year I replaced the oil filter housing to a screw on type (the best thing I have done :-) ) and as part of that I had to remove the crank pulley. Doing that I also replaced the drive belts so had to pull the top dynastart pulley apart to suit the new belts - it was annoying where I would adjust...

Re: Shuush The Little Haffies Are Sleeping
Sorry no link - I know of a guy on another forum who put one in a Land rover and that it works well and was relatively cheap - other than that I have not investigated any further.

Re: Shuush The Little Haffies Are Sleeping
Hi John I hope you are well. My brakes are OK but I have oil on one of the rear brakes so the car pull right under heavy braking so was thinking of doing a full overall. Yes brakes are not great overall and I was thinking of putting an electric brake booster on - these are cheap and work really well...

Re: Shuush The Little Haffies Are Sleeping
Everything has all gone quiet again - better speak softly so not to wake sleeping Haffies. Nothing changed on my vehicle - just starts and goes and runs fine. Things I want to do are redo the brakes, change the lights to LEDs with LED spotties, install a removable winch for offroad use, put on a lar...

Re: 600 miles.
One of the maintenance issues I have with my vehicle is the tappets closing up over time and impacting exhaust hydrocarbons and engine performance. Is just a pain removing rocker covers and adjusting them - then getting the covers back on and not leaking.

Re: Zenith carb not idling
The needles in the pic are the Porsche ones - the Haflinger ones have a smaller diameter knurled end - doesn't matter though as the needle itself is the same.

Re: Zenith carb not idling
The other issue is that people screw in the idle needles far too hard and this causes the ends to deform or ridges form - which changes the shape inside the carb. I suggest you puy new needles and put them in - - they only screw in until they stop - no further. You might be able to get just the need...

Re: previous post
Dave, Not sure what post you saw but I just posted this information on this thread http://thehaflinger.com/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=3841&p=14705#p14705 a couple of days ago - tells you how to do it. However I doubt this will fix your problem as this mixture setting is for idle. Wet plugs normall...

Yes as John indicated - for day to day use the handbook is more useful.

Re: Lurch in need of a transplant
So did you consider putting Lurch on the bonfire??
I think you will find the standard exhaust is tuned with the passenger side being a tuned multiple of the shorter drivers side.

Re: Lurch in need of a transplant
Hi John - I hope this all goes well - after two engine rebuilds I know what a pain it can be. If you are going to do away with your exhaust heating system why not just install the standard non heating system. Exhaust from passenger cylinder runs across under the engine an joins a short pipe from the...

Re: Front Suspension Arm Fulcrum O Rings
Thanks John - I will try normal 0 rings and see how I go. There did not seem to be much wear on the pins or the housing so maybe fresh o rings will help.

Front Suspension Arm Fulcrum O Rings
As we all should know the suspension fulcrum pins are lubricated from the diff oil through little holes - to prevent leaks there are o rings either side of the hole in the fulcrum pin. If I remember correctly these o rings have a square cross section but I cannot recall. A few years back when I rebu...

Re: Brand NEW Semprit style tyres are now available!
Thanks - I guess the price of the tyres is not too bad (130euro is about $200AUD) as they are so hard to find - but shipping will be as much as the cost of the tyres.

Re: Hemi the Haff.
In my experience with a few cars now, unless you can guarantee day to day dedication to the task do not strip a vehicle down - do running repairs etc as required - if motivation is lost you only have to fix one or two little things and get out for some enjoyment - for most people not a lot of enjoym...
