ESE's works engine tuner

[SS90]

Spoke to Darbi regarding the plug issue and was told to return the plugs to them and they will replace them free-of-charge even if used on a competition engine.

They have a shipment of replacement plugs due end of November. Note "replacement" plugs - not a free "upgrade" to EIVX grade

So it looks if "Consumer Guarantee" or commercial commonsense/pragmatism worked, and good on Darbi's for a positive response.

As expected, the reference to competition engines was Wobbly lodging a claim for engine damage as a result of faulty plugs, I am very interested to hear of the result of that one, as I said, NGK would (in my experience with wholesalers) not most likely not offer compensation of any sort for that. It remains to be seen.

Replacement plugs, for sure, I wonder if the claimants have to prove they where purchased from a NZ reatailer or not, given so many people buy of the Bay of E these days.

Nice to see some 2CV stuff on ESE thread. The late model 2CV a full 602cc.

You guys are sick

[twotempi]

The 2CV engine also must be fairly sick if you can only get 2HP out of 602cc !!!!

[andrew a]

Thats a French rating. The 602 flat twin air cooled puts out 35bhp.

Reading about the sweat blood and tears of people and their racing efforts is always interesting.

That's not for me to divulge. Maybe Richard will tell.

Hello Frits,
This year
I have read this entire forum, some 630 plus pages
I have read the French forum, some 70 plus pages
I have read some 800 pages of the 8 pt forum of which describes this pipe system, i do not understand, why the secrecy ?

I get a fair amount of information from a lot of sources, but it is not up to me to spread that information further, because it is not my intellectual property.
I leave it to those sources to decide if, when and how much they want to reveal. I think it is a matter of decency rather than secrecy.

That's a set of morals the world could learn (or at least remember) a thing or two from.

Yes and no. While I respect Frits position I personally feel information can be referenced and shared (if the information is made available publicly) as long as appropriate credit is given to source and author. The world would be so dull and uneducated if we couldn’t quote great people.
Hopefully no lawsuits are to follow

it's almost impossible to disagree with Frits on this one.
Richard has done (I guess a fair amount) of experimenting to come up with a way to seal a pipe so weather he (Richard) chooses to share the info (I hope he does) its entirely up to Richard. For all the information that is shared on the forums is because people have chosen to share it in the first place.... For that we owe an eternal gratitude to MR Thiel and MR Overmars and many others.

My wish list includes a complete 3d model of the Aprillia cylinder so we could all study it in great detail.
Now that would be a treat. I wonder if that is possible.......

Kel if there is to be a lawsuit it will be for the guy that has posted 100's copyrighted articles for public consumption.......But it would be a hard ask as most of it is out of print.....Plus i can outrun Kim Dotcom at least.......
