If you have the carbon lookee-likee pods as per Phil’s photo above and you have traditional Landrover lights (with filament bulbs) then in all likelihood the tub itself would have needed a bit of trimming for them to fit. 

I definitely have the carbon lookee-likee pods but no idea if they are Landrover lights, it's my first Westie so my knowledge of various bits isn't great. Yet. When you say the tub itself would have needed trimming, do you mean holes cut through the bodywork/rear arch for the wires or some other kind of trimming?

Interesting. What material are you going to print it in? Am I right in thinking this attaches to the wall of the tunnel and sticks out as opposed to other ones I've seen like mine which is more like a recess cut into the tunnel wall?

Correct. Printed in PETG. I have the recess but find it just that bit too small so it’s to extend that. Riveted in place. But could also just be riveted to the tunnel for those that don’t have the wee pocket  IMG_1879.thumb.jpeg.f7b01b6f747359266acd8b05ac65ee93.jpegIMG_1878.thumb.jpeg.e24167dfb1b7c1fbbc235379fd989d01.jpeg

Excellent job! Any idea if it's possible to print a clear cover for my vernier cam pulleys? They would be great to look at but are covered by the usual black crackle finish cover.

Doubt it. Only option for clear would be resin. And the thermal properties are really poor

Attempting to find an idle misfire fault on an old and pre-production CANEMS ECU...but without the car it belongs in.

An Arduino providing the crank and cam signals, pots for MAP, WTS, TPS, IAT.

 

The rather crude test rig worked fine, but sadly, absolutely no sign of the ECU misbehaving. In all likelihood it's something specific to the install, but the owner has already gone to pretty extensive lengths to eliminate all the usual suspects for an idle misfire.

 

The car runs LPG & petrol, the petrol being supplied by the OEM and unmolested KE Jetronic, LPG by the CANEMS, so the issue has to be sparks, which the CANEMS supplies for both gas & petrol operation.

 

Managed to make plenty of ozone but no sign of a problem.

Chanced across a Westfield bonnet badge I bought a while back but decided not to fit. Then noticed it was the perfect size to replace the Momo badge in my steering wheel. Now looks way better.
