VW Lupo Bobine Bougiekabels 13-05-2014
De VW Lupo gaat dit jaar groot onderhoud beleven, achterstallig onderhoud zeg maar. 1 van de punten nadat ik het onderstel heb aangepakt is de ontsteking.
Nieuwe bobine en bougiekabels besteld & gemonteerd, verrassing dat de kabels ook nog eens blauw siliconen waren, meevallertje!
De motor loopt als een zonnetje en schiet vooruit, zo goed heeft hij volgens mij nog nooit gelopen :)

Made from found objects including keys, scrap wire, found metal springs, found nuts, glass beads, ceramic beads, found sparkplug...
I had to pull a bolt form the exhaust manifold to bend the shield out of the way so I could fit the spark plug in.

Roamer automobiles were built from 1919 to 1926 in Kalamazoo, Michigan. They were 'assembled' automobiles, which means the components were purchased from automotive supplier companies and then assembled at Roamer's plant. This practice was typical of many low volume automobile companies that did not have the resources to design and build their own parts.
Roamers were known as sporty automobiles and their designs reflected the look of the Roaring 20's with rakish windshields, low body lines, thin fenders and wire wheels. Two models were produced, a lower priced model which was powered by a 54 horsepower, inline, L-head six-cylinder engine manufactured by the Continental engine company and a more expensive model which was powered by a 100 horsepower Rochester-Duesenberg four-cylinder engine.
This engine used valves which entered the combustion chambers from the side and were operated by means of a complex, external rocker arm arrangement. This engine design was built in 1914 by the Duesenberg Brothers and used in many race cars during the period as well as a few high performance passenger cars such as the Kenworhty, the Revere and the Roamer

Fast forward just three years and now the staid man in his shirt and tie and shop coat and some factual information about the product has been replaced with a glamour girl astride a formula one type car and promises of loads more cash if you buy more Champion spark plugs. Everything about this is a totally different approach to just three years earlier and shows just how much changed in that short era from 1965 to 1968. It's all moved on again since - the gradual eradication of this sort of undisguised sexism is definitely a step forward and such blatant money making promises are more cleverly disguised if essentially still the same in the present day.

As the holidays approach, we have a great client we work with on every album release, so we decided to make them something unique as a gift and thank you for their extra help.
Built in 1884 but inactive from 1955 to 1997. 66 foot tall cast iron sparkplug type lighthouse, with 3 galleries, 2 upper and 1 lower all built on a concrete caisson. The interior contains a 3 story keeper's quarters. The light signal is a white or red flash, depending on direction, every 6 seconds.
