Hi Richard, I also did the exact same diagram but it wouldn't work. Also I keep overheating the 555 timer and the 100ohm resistor. Should the 100ohm be 1W or...
I am surprised that these things give trouble - I must have just been very lucky when I made mine ! I didn't use any kind of breadboard or veroboard or...
Being that there have been alot of posts lately about ignition systems I figured I would throw my thoughts into the mix. I have built the 555 timer based...
-thanks for the time and advice rick ,but i figured it out last night. i cannot believe how stupid i was ,it was doing as it was designed to do!!!what is...
if I was faced with this problem, the first thing I'd do would be to put a dashpot into pipe that leads to the pressure switch. Find a bit of plastic rod...
--hi there trebcavx ,i understand where you are coming from ,if my pump supplyed 60 psi and the pressure switch for the other one ,was set at about sixty .this...
Sounds very interesting - look forward to seeing this one! Bruce Doz. ... <slaphappysamy@y...> wrote: [snip]> The spark rips off the coil about 3 inches long...
Jon, If I recall right, you said the relay has 2 outputs. ??? How about using the unused output to latch the coil in? If you had a switch for the second...
--sorry i do not really understand ,the second output is a pernament live and is not switched by the coil in the relay .i need the second circuit to come on...
Hi Jonboy This is starting to sound like a very complicated oiling system, with 2 pumps relays and the like , perhaps a reminder of the first rule of DIY'ering...
another possibility is to adjustthe pressure switch so it comes in at a lower pressure - What kind of pressure switch is it ? Mine is adjustable with small...

Aha!! Now, what can I say, there's a solution so simple I only wish I'd have thought of it myself! Dammit..! ;o) Needless to say I'll be employing it on mine....
-thanks for the input ! ,i finally think there be a even damm simpler solution ,this was inspired by the reply from rick ,who had planted the seed of a...
Hi Sal Thats going to be one "interesting" bike :-)) There's a few pics of my oil-fuel pump amongst the ones Jesse has generously put up on his site recently...
Nice pictures John, not sure how the turbo connects to the free power turbo and how that connects to the final drive, but it all looks very good. How long has...
Jon, If you're thinking of connecting the switched side of the relay to both the relay coil and the motor, don't do it unless the pressure switch can handle...

--ok had a think ,and i think by using a second relay ,instead of switching on the pump this would be the primary and would be used by the pressure switch to...
That sounds like it would work. But it would be better to have only one relay with two sets of contacts. A double pole, single or double throw relay is the...
Hi Gary There's a lot more pics to be added to complete the built sequence, stay tuned :-)) There's just a short( 6")transition piece between the outlet of the...
hello everybody, i have been going through the mails and other group's activities since few months, one thing i have found out is a lack of a really good ...
Hi John, Yep, well I thought if I can't get the thrust with the small turbo I'm using ( KKK-K26 ), I'm going to go with less mass to get my acceleration! Once...
What a vision! We need lots of pictures when it's together Sal. How about a hampster in a wheel for added acceleration? And what about driving your electrics...
