Dunno; not weighed, but the ea82 is lightweight and I would say at least 150kg more. Fgot 2 add if anyone does this go at least 72v with the motor to keep up with 80kmh traffic. 36v is too slow even with 54v through it.

Hi; an update with my efforts to go green. Pics show forklift motor installed in place of EA82. 10k range with scrapyard batteries and 30k top speed.2 top batteries are 24v for startoff; 3x12v underneath in carrier.54v in rear. Small medical equipment battery is for lights etc (patent pending for ba...

An alternative is to try the type of belt used to drive ride on mower blades. If you can find the right size and pitch.They are usually green in colour and designed to resist a lot of heat and vegetation oiling.

18, but the car was 14 : I think I understand; similar to the old Chrsler vip mercury ignition light switch. There must be a sensor indicating horizontal attitude of the car which activates brake pressure above a set angle with brake pressure released by the clutch depression.It sounds similar to Is...

repeated doses of diesel and lots of pensioner type patience.(I've got forever; why rush?)

Hi; still persevering with the electric sub. As mentioned, the L 3.7 diff ratio is too high; is there a 4.4 or thereabouts that will interchange with the L diff?

Yes; car still has fwd fully operational. Pics show early fitment of forklift motor. Motor is really too small for this car and would be better in the small subaru that weighs 650 kg. Batteries are old forklift batteries and run down quickly. Top speed is only 40kmh on level ground with 4.5k distanc...

Hi, Brian from Hunter Valley. I would like to obtain a schematic diagram of the bolt pattern motor to gearbox for a 1989 L series 4wd wagon, Australian model. It is a 1.8 L carby engine. At the moment it is a hybrid with a 36V motor driving the rear diff. This works but the 3.7:1 ratio is too high f...
