scooter is it still fact that it don't want to charge a flat battery or what is the probleme?

Here is a picture of my own DUAL BATTERY SYSTEM. 16012008155.jpg It uses a pic microcontroller that have to be programmed to do what you want it to do. I decided that this is how I think it would work best. And please if you think I’m doing it wrong Please let me know. Any suggestions are welcome....

No not yet. I’m still sorting out the control circuit. I’m a lazy bugger. If I install it before I’m done with the programming I will have to go and test the chip in the bakkie. Too much walking!!! I will most likely install it on Saturday. That is if I don’t change my mind and redesign the ...

I then drove around for a few hours to charge it again but what I found was that with the battery being so flat the alternator cannot supply enough charge and the charge rate falls below 12.8 which in turn forces the solenoid to switch all the charge back to the main battery thus leaving the Aux ba...

Hope this helps to understand Alternators and charging of the batteries.

Hi Knersus. Sins everybody is throwing theories around I thought I should to. I agree with most of the theories, but I have some as well. Here goes mine. Most of us are running our fridges off our second battery. Using about 3Amps. And last night we were running the camp lights and the fridges of it...

Some people say you must run down a turbo before you switch of your vehicle. Then there was the Isuzu’s that come with a turbo timer that let the vehicle run for ? Minute’s . But that is Illegal to let you vehicle engine run with out somebody attending it. Have anyone heard about a small contain...

Wat is die verskil tussen TC1 en TC2? omtrend R316 ! Nee ek weet nie ek het hul prys gevra op die TC 2. Die verkoopsman het toe net gese dat die tC2 het glo nog `n probe op wat nie op `n voertuig gebuik word nie. So kan ek met TC1 oor die weg kom. So die R316 betaal bus vir die probe en jy kry nog ...

The TC1 gauge is a single Probe gauge that are being used in aircrafts to measure the EGT. http://www.mglavionics.co.za/ I phoned MGL AVIONICS (011 455 4203) and got a price on the TC1 and TC2 gauges and a probe. TC1 = R 850 Vat inc. TC2 = R 1166 vat inc. Probe = R 226 vat inc. So far the best price...

Thanks for that info Niel.

I phoned MGL AVIONICS (011 455 4203) and got a price on the TC1 and TC2 gauges and a probe.

So far the best price jet

Ja wel dit is al wat jy kan doen om hom koeler teloop is om jou voet bietjie op tetel. Maar hy behoort jou darm `n goeie idee tegee wanneer om dit tedoen.

Nee . Krag spring van 85KW na +/- 110 KW toe. (Power)

En die Wring krag vanaf 315 Nm na +/- 370 Nm toe.(Torque)

I`m also planning on building my own. I’m just waiting for some prizes on the thermal couple K-Type temp. probe. and a 12volt Indicator.

I like my KZTE in a running condition and sins this is my first diesel vehicle my knowledge is about ZERO on diesels. I heard about this EGT monitor system but had no idée what it is and what you use it for. Well sins Saturday I have found out that you can cook you diesel if you are running it too ...

Ek het ook vandag met Paul by SAC gesels. Baie behulp saam gewees. Die conversion se prys is wel R9500 wat die intercooler en chip insluit. Nee hulle verander niks aan die boost level nie. Hy reken dit hul sal so 8 ure besig wees met die voertuig. En as jy daar uit stap met jou KZTE behoort die Kw o...

Ek het met Nic gepraat vandag maar hy moet eers glo gaan pryse uitwerk hy kan nie so oor die foon `n prys gee nie. Sodra ek trug voering van hom af kry sal ek laat weet. Ps. Hy het gese ek moet nie haastig wees nie.

Dankie. ek sal volgende week maar daar moet gaan draai. Ek het juis vandag gebel vir `n dyne maar het met so verdwaalde siel gepraat wat blykbaar alleen daar was. :roll:

Knersus as dit die selfde voorval is as wat ek aan dink , dan is die vuur veroorsaak deur die gas yskas wat die mense laat bly loop het om die vleis koud tehou tewyl hul ry.Die yskas het nie die pyp gerook om net snags tewerk nie. Wel hy het op die ou einde gerook maar dit was saam met die hele bakk...

Im waiting for SAC to open on monday to get more Detail on the conversion and price

Dankie vir almal se insette. Dit word wardeur. En maak die keuses soveel makliker.


Dankie ou Knersus. Ek het n hak agter my bakkie so wees nie bevrees nie jy sal nie agter bly nie.

Thanks Papa Joe

I appreciate all comments. I was starting to have second thoughts about the conversion. But something has to be done about this Donkey of mine. I don’t like to make an appointment to pass another vehicle.

"Secondly there was a number of guys that advised me not to do the conversion."

Can you remember why they advised you not to do the conversion?

I got a price in Des.2007 of R.9500.00. Thy claim the KW`s moves from 85KW up to 115KW. With between 5 to 8% fuel saving.

Hi.
I bought my self a 3.0 KZTE , but it lags some power. I’m thinking of fitting an intercooler and remapping the fuel system. I heard about SAC conversions. Have any body done it? Can you subject any other conversions?
