Hi,

Jesse, Rod (El Presidente - Pretty Boy) is right on the mark with this one. As you know, I've got an 18RG which is very similar to the 2TG engine, and over the years I have taken it to many tune-up shops and it's never performed as I would expect. Actually, I was a little disappointed at the performance of the engine.

I bit the bullet and, upon many recommendations, took the car to Frank Kleinig Motors, and, as you have seen my posts, the engine now goes like a little ripper.

Trust me, spend the dosh and get Frank to do it. He knows the old Toyota twin cam engines and their carbie set-ups. He knows the Weber, Solex and DeLorot carbs - 'cos he was talking to me about them. It cost me about $750 to get the carbs pulled down, rebuilt, plugs, points, and dyno tuned. The best money I have spent on the car so far 'cos it's like a new engine. It took about a week for him to do it.

Frank's number is 9896-3672, and he's at 5 Amax Avenue, Girraween.

I'd love to see 2 new posts from you. The first post is "I took the car to Kleinigs", and the 2nd post "Got the car back and I cannot beleive the grunt my engine has!" Smile

Go on, do it! We all want to see your T18 tearing up the bitumen and scaring women and children almost as much as you do. Smile Hey, I'd like to come over and check it out when it's all done.
