Manx Club

Im having a timing issue with my buggy. It feels like the advance in not fully advancing the power flattens out at higher rpms say 4K in 3rd of 4th gear. I have shot the distributor with WD 40. Still not better. I swapped the distributpor with another and it is better, but not fixed. So the dumb que...

OK one of our family' s Manx's have returned. Can't find the article to break down the serial number. A0268C020E. Can someone help. Nelson you out there?

Ill keep the Subaru engine in mind. It was more show than go.

Well it was our first pinewood derby and I could not resist. It was deemed too good to be judged. Oh well had fun making it. http://i65.photobucket.com/albums/h221/carltonstetson/IMG_1725.jpg http://i65.photobucket.com/albums/h221/carltonstetson/IMG_1727.jpg http://i65.photobucket.com/albums/h221/ca...

Well after many years finally made it to Pismo with the buggy. Went well. mid 70's not many people on the dunes. Really we were the only buggy there.

Looks great cant wait to see it in person

Went on a ride Saturday through the south eastern El Dorado County between Mormon Emigrant Pass road and Hyw 89 nice country. Lots of downed trees from the winter and our initial route was shortened by snow still as low as 5000 ft or so making it a bit impassable. A bit of mud and not so much dust. ...

Tom One thing I came across on mine was very suttle. The intake manifolds were not torqued properly (well they loosened them selves up) and had started taking a set to the gaskets (read grit had gotten in there and made matters worse). I had a very slight vac leak. Once I lapped the Intake surfaces ...
