Re: Alky Kits?
John, tell me more about that alky tank. I opted for the 'standard' washer fluid reservoir and HATE it with a passion. I don't like that the low level indicator comes on early (more than 1/2 full) and the pick up is at the front (not good for those hard launches/pulls) and that the tank only holds half a gallon.
That looks like the Jazz 2gal I was checking out and was trying to figure out how to move the pickup and sensor over cleanly. Might have to contact Julio again to get some more info and what not.
Shoot me a PM or reply here with how much that 'option' was and any other details you can give me. Thanks.

Re: Alky Kits?
That's a great idea and I was considering doing the exact same thing. I have many things on the list to do for the coming season and the methanol kit had many little things here and there as part of the master list. I want a better reservoir and change out the active LED for a more soothing color than red. I also want to do a more custom mount for the controller. I was anxious to get it installed and running and had to add some caps and a few other things to make it all jive but now that it works I need to make it look/work better. Any stats on the LEDs so I know what to look for as far as voltage and mcd or anything? I have a whole bag of blue LEDs but I forget the stats on them.

Re: Alky Kits?
I honestly don't remember, I blew my orignal LED due to not realizing a resistor was in the wiring. I know they didn't have size I wanted at Radio Shack, most of them were too big. I want to say I used 12V but it may have been 5V. Call up Alky control, he will tell you. It one of those PIA thing to get for $1 in parts...

Re: Alky Kits?
It's the Jazz 2 gal tank. Julio picked it up and priced it with my kit. If I were you I would either buy one and send it and your other one to him so he could set it up right or just send him yours and he will get you a tank and set it up. It's a large tank...make sure you have a place to mount it. Mounting it up in the corner like mine might not work for some as I don't have anything left in that corner. You may still have your oil return lines and oil cooler lines, vac canister etc. You have to remount your horn and do some rewiring.

Re: Alky Kits?
John actually there is an update to the system that will now have the LED change colors from Red when it comes on to Green when the system develops pressure.. this is as of Oct '05.. So you were thinking on the rite train of thought.. I just took it a step further
dgoodhue said:I mounted my alky control knob in the panel under the steering wheel. I initially elimated the instant on button and red led, but I have since add the instant turn on button (I didn't want a red led glowing down low on my dash) The other two toggle swicthes are for fan and IC pump overrides.
On the pillar pod, I have my low alky light next to my fuel pressure gauge. I have my alky pumping light next to my boost gauge, I change that Led to green (from red, I figure red was a warning, green mean go

How much to upgrade to the Bi-Colored pressure sensing circuit.

Re: Alky Kits?
Easiest and best is if you can ship me the pump, i'll perform the mods and include the module and new LED. My charge to my customers is 40 if they have the pump with the pressure switch, 55 if its without. This includes rebuilding the pump with a new valve/seals/connector/SS hardware/plugs/etc. Shipping is 9.00 back to you if within the US.
Use an USPS Priority FRB1(flat rate box) box to send me the pump, its cost is 9.00 from anywhere in the US from the USPS.
If you just want the module and led only, 35.00 shipped.
Email me for address or call for info during the day eastern standard
