Hey team, looks like I'm not going to get out of Hamilton tomorrow for this.
Bit of a bummer but I've got way too much to sort out before the end of this weekend.

Rob - I still owe you a beer dude, I haven't forgotten!

Nope, but I will now that you've mentioned him.

Thanks!

Hi team, I'm after the hose that goes from the crankcase breather on the side of the block under the exhaust manifold to the PCV on the intake manifold. The one on the L18 in my wagon is in pieces :( You can see the stub of it in this photo and the PCV above it. 20151007_175015.jpg Thanks Michael

Cool, I'll have a look at that. Thanks!

I guess that could cause the fuel to leak out and off the end of the nozzle. Anyone know if that bronze bit is replaceable? Or does that render the e...

Nah I had the springs done at Archers in Rotorua.

I'm based in Hamilton and yeah they are difficult to get bits for. At least the front shares bits with the sedan.

I've seen a handful on TradeMe, plus I've heard about one out on the East Coast that some guys are apparently turning into a show car.

There was also one down in the South Island that had a 2L and 5 speed in it, perhaps that is the one that you have? I thought it was black though...obviously not.
