Nifty Posted February 27, 2004 Share Posted February 27, 2004 I read somewhere that there was an issue with blowing fuses for the ECU, or something along those lines, and so people were changing the 20A fuse for a 30A fuse. Got all the loom on the living room floor at present and it just occurred to me, do I need to do this I've got a 1995 1400 Supersport. Cheers, Nifty.

caterhamnut Posted February 27, 2004 Share Posted February 27, 2004 You may as well. We had a blown 20A (RAC rescue required) fuse and were advised to do so - rescued someone on the A303 who had sat there for 4 hours with a blown 20A fuse - gave him a 30A - been fine ever since. Can happen on start up (did with us) Now always carry a spare fuse, but no problems since we moved to a 30A (Did I send you the carrotland images Nifty - been so busy recently I cannot remember what I did 2 hours ago, let alone 2 days - the updated ones that is) NEW Nurburgring Pictures posted here 55,000miles in 2.5 years Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nifty Posted February 27, 2004 Author Share Posted February 27, 2004 Cheers Angus, it may have been on your site I read it. No, you haven't sent the "Carrotland" pictures. You did send another disc with the "Carroteers" pictures and I sent an E-mail after this but then forgot. Ernie's now champing at the bit so I'd be grateful if we could get this sorted. Appreciate your help P.S. If you are sending me a CD could you just download Jackal's latest videos of his Duratec for me too (you are broadband aren't you?). And also the 106 Mb file of the Ring Taxi at the end of his BM section would be very gratefully appreciated......another £10 to NTL Keep off the straight and narrow 😬 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caterhamnut Posted February 27, 2004 Share Posted February 27, 2004 b*gger Nifty - I was sure I sent the updated pictures soon after you requested - I have certainly changed them - I will email them to you now (not big files) and sort out a CD this weekend as well - sorry about that.

Nifty Posted February 27, 2004 Author Share Posted February 27, 2004 Cheers *wink* *thumbup* Just looked at the latest pics of Richard's models, with the rollcages. You're a genius *thumbup* 😬 😬 😬 Keep off the straight and narrow 😬 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caterhamnut Posted February 27, 2004 Share Posted February 27, 2004 emails sent! slow genius ☹️ But they WILL get finished. Workshop at work is being completely rebuilt at the moment which does not help. Pleased with the roll cages though - they really work well and give the model proportion. Each one fits on each model at all the correct mounting points, which has to be some sort of fluke!

Nifty Posted February 27, 2004 Author Share Posted February 27, 2004 Just tried to download and the E-mail server connection failed *mad* I'll try agian in the morning. Good night Keep off the straight and narrow 😬 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mole Posted February 28, 2004 Share Posted February 28, 2004 I changed mine for a 25 amp circuit breaker - as well as being able to reset if it trips it also offers manual disconnection (via a little button) which I see as an additional security feature .

Nifty Posted February 28, 2004 Author Share Posted February 28, 2004 Hmm, good idea Mole. How did you do it and where did you get the circuit breaker from please. Keep off the straight and narrow 😬 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mole Posted February 28, 2004 Share Posted February 28, 2004 I think I got it from DTweeks. It has the same terminals as a normal spade type fuse so it's a direct replacement - just pull out the old fuse and replace with the breaker - hey presto 😬 SV 52 CAT - moles fly - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
