Recurving BB dissy was: B/Bird dissy and heat shields

[mick ralph]

Mark Thanks for that.. I ended up replacing the module and it made no difference except I now have a spare module.. Can't be a bad thing. Seems to be some differing opinions about 'recurving'. Some tell me it's fantastic and some tell me it's a waste of time. Now that the engine is more sorted out I am wondering if its worth it... Any ideas about $$$$? Sorry for the late response. I somehow missed u in amongst all the others.. cheers Mick ----- Original Message ----- From: mark krawczuk To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, January 24, 2002 10:16 PM Subject: Re: B/Bird dissy and heat shields hi, recurving is done  in the dizzy, the module  just controlls the spark. it is actually  thermal heatsink compound, to help transfer the heat from the module to a larger area. they only give you just enough, u have to  squeeze the crap out the  sachet , you only need a thin smear.   btw if any body needs some heatsink compound let me know i have a big tube, and can send a bit to ya. email :          [EMAIL PROTECTED]     i just replaced a buggered ign module on a z-28 camaro,  it is exactky the same  reluctor type set up as the electronic bluebird. in fact u can use the  camaro module  on the bb s2 dizzy, its a different shape,   with  2 terminals at each end instead of  four in a row,.   i got a new one, and did some readings  with a digital meter on the good and bad one,  so if anybody needs to test  a dodgy module  email me and  i`ll email what readings i got. cant see there being  any difference in readings between the  z-28 and bb one.    mark k ----- Original Message ----- From: mick ralph To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, January 24, 2002 6:40 PM Subject: B/Bird dissy and heat shields I have just put a new ignition module in my BB s2 dissy. Bosch of course.. I was hoping that it would take the flicker out of my tacho and clean up the bottom end a bit.. Nothing doing!!  hehe  U can't really clean up the bottom end with a 76 cam and 45 webers i guess. And the tacho (factory SSS) must just be stuffed but still usuable. Questions out of interest. I've heard of recurving the dissy. is this done on the ign module or what? They give u a tiny little bag of insulating goo to sit the module on, i guess to shield it from heat. How much of this stuff should u use?. i don't think there was enough. Is having extractors nearby likely to provide too much heat? Should i build the heat shield for the webers with a special shield for the dissy? cheers mick Gold Coast rules - at the moment!! www.datsun1600.freeservers.com --membersozdat------------------------------------------------------- OZDAT Mailing List Please Note:- Send (un)subscribe requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Send submissions to [EMAIL PROTECTED] No unauthorised redistribution of this email http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/index.htm http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/listindex.html http://www.mail-archive.com/membersozdat@datascribe.com.au/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- --membersozdat------------------------------------------------------- OZDAT Mailing List Please Note:- Send (un)subscribe requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Send submissions to [EMAIL PROTECTED] No unauthorised redistribution of this email http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/index.htm http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/listindex.html http://www.mail-archive.com/membersozdat@datascribe.com.au/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- --membersozdat------------------------------------------------------- OZDAT Mailing List Please Note:- Send (un)subscribe requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Send submissions to [EMAIL PROTECTED] No unauthorised redistribution of this email http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/index.htm http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/listindex.html http://www.mail-archive.com/membersozdat@datascribe.com.au/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------
