E-series trivia quiz!

[LTDHO]

Ok next question then...

Which models used REAL woodgrain, and where was it used?

EBII-ED Ghias, NA-NC Fairlanes, DA-DC LTDs, real woodgrain spears for the dootrims?

Don't forget radio surround, tbar surround and window switch surround.

I didn't think EB S XR6 got the exhaust valves or ze booster, they had the 91AB head casting didn't they?

Yer they did, I have one sitting in the driveway
The EB XR head is actually the highest flowing stock head of all the e-series heads!...

Yeah, I have one, I may need you to look at, apparently it's EB with small valves!!

Correct, except for the failanes. Also, there was more than just these that got real woodgrain

As for the radio surround, etc. only certain models got REAL woodgrain on these items

6 or 8? have a feeling the EB was up around 650-700 or something rediculous

[Schmee]

best Ive had out of the EF ser2 which is ticky motor and 3.45 LSD was around 500kms in town and 740 on the open road both of those I was about 2-3 litres short of a full fill from what the bowser said

the old EB is lucky to drop 350kms per tank of fuel thats when it was manual with large cam and out on the highway

[spope]

6 cylinder, sorry, should have specified that.

[Gozza]

I average 11.4 L's /100K's - 60% Highway - 40% City

I also got around 700 from a tank all highway

[spope]

Ok, crappy question.
And I don't have the answer with me at work. It's at home.

New question:

Which was the first model to offer these as options across the range? Looking for 4 models here, not necessarily all different.

EF
ED

[LTDHO]

How many litres should an BTR auto trans take on a Full Fluid Flush.

Full, inc convertor?

[spope]

EA's didn't have cruise?

EA Ghia did, it was standard. It became optional across the range with EB2.

[EFFalcon]

Full Flush

[Sunboost]

15 litres?

[LTDHO]

I would have gone 10 litres, plus 1 for convertor and .5 for extrernal cooler.

[Damo]

dis fread is confusing.

[Damo]

30 litres for a full flush ?

[EFFalcon]

workshop manual says 10
