When the bloke came with the saff when he sold it to us (he came to us cos he was from the IOW) he said "I want an extra £100 for the flmaer kit " we said take it and now we want to complete it again
Basically from what we could tell he had a blue box in the boot linked up to it that was all he took away from it (we think) so how can we get it all up&running again?
Can you get what we need second hand ect? and where from?
Thanks

This is a little box of tricks that's when mated up to an ignition coil and a spark plug that sticks in the end of the exhaust,this produces a spark at the flick of a switch.


If he's just removed the box,which is the main bit! you can buy them from peeps on this board.

Put a wanted advert up for the flamer kit.

Check if the coil and spark plug are still there too.

Maybe you can ring the guy who you bought the car off and buy his one!!

I am not sure because the switch is still there its orange and when you flick it the switch lights up and we still have the power cable that was linked to the box in the boot!
He said to us if we ever need (forgotten the actualy rate he said) a power supply to the bot say for an amp we can use that and flick the switch to get the power but I am certian the box is the only thing he took away
PS I would not be spurised if he blew it up on the way here cos the whole back end was covered in black soot!

Check the wire off the box is not live when you flick the switch,not that you will flick it on.

He might have ripped the wires and left them bare!
