Calling all Daihatsu Owners

Forum: 

Hi from Daihatsu Girl,

Just thought I would write and tell you all about my experience with Mr Engine.
I joined the Daihatsu Club when I was having trouble with my 1990 Daihatsu Sportrak. After having had her for 18 years, she nearly had to go. But I found a site
called Mr Engine, who do low millage reconditioned engines for ALL Japanese cars and she came back to "life again".

I AM NEW! just have a few queries...

Forum: 

I recently bought a Fourtrak SWb (Rocky I think it says in the engine bay). Its a 94 one with wide wheel arches, and I love it! Its very dirty, so I have cleaned it and treated most of the rust. My questions are:

idle speed-what should it be? at 500-600 it runs a bit too wobbly for me, so I upped it to 700, is this ok? I did this using the little dial button under the steering wheel...

Fourtrak fuel tank size

Forum: 

apparantely is 60 litres..yet i have never for the life of me been able to get more than about 48 litres in the tank. And thats starting from the needle being a mm off the edge of the scale. Is the 10 or so missing litres taken up with diesel cr ap ..or can i keep driving for another 10 litres worth before it actually runs out? Also is there a reserve tank?
