Now for the dumb bit

Can anyone advise, as to the use of a bow tank. Patriot is fitted with one and I re fitted it. There are no pipes, pickups, pumps , outlets, inlets or aything for it. Would I benefit from using it and if so, what should I buy, to opporate it. It has two small fittings on the top of it and one large one at the bottom.

Cheers.

Peter

Some use em, some don't,
Would need pick up scoop on back, operated by a throttle style lever by cable usually.
Pipe feed to the tank, dump out let which can be done on same lever and a breather.
Top two fittings are breather and inlet, bottom is dump

Help, Any Ideas

Hi all, Raised engine about 2.5" and took her out this morning. Still a bit rough so didn't push too hard. She appeared to lean over to port more than when the engine was lower. This time I was alone so no weight on Port side. Did push her to 60mph (Max speed log from GPS) but she didn't seem faster although she lurched over hard. Any ideas ???? If the answer is, to move the engine over, how much ????. Cheers Going for a

Peter

Anyone managed to get hold of John Lonsdale, I need to find out the original HIN for insurance. Peter... PS, new 20" mid fitted and waiting for gear case to be fitted with 20" shaft. Should only be another week or so, to try her again. Fingers crossed.

Send a message via ICQ to nigelk
Try sending a pm to Martin Davies on this forum. He may have a contact for Jon Lonsdale?
