Hi Alex.   I did a write up on how to do the brakes on an early pod. http://www.qpodclub.com/forum/topics/qpod-drum-brakes-howto-adjust   It will take you a good few hours to do a really good job.   Alex.

Alex replied to Ben Holley's discussion 'Carb Upgrade'
Hi Ben. The Carb supplied is more then good enough, as is the vacuum fuel pump.   If your pod is running rough, can i suggest that the problem may be that the Coil Pickup is touching the fly wheel.   Drop the exhaust and engone fan / side…

About Me:
I got a Qpod Funtech a few weeks ago. It's an Earlier one (2000) in fair condition.
My Other "Car" is Moto-Guzzi Breva 1100.

The Qpod is to use through the Winter to keep the salt off the Guzzi. My Daily commute is about 4 Miles each way and i have to say that the Qpod seems to do the job more than well enough.
Work even give me Free Parking :)

Hi Alex, I just took your advice and went to check out the pod's wheels, And both of the front as at 15, and both of the back are at 19, though they do seem pumped up pretty well, by the looks of them they are the original sized tires, Do I wanna let them down a bit and see what happens, Any ideas why it could be jumping around everywhere?

Hi Alex, Could you tell me what PSI for Qpod Fun tires? I have the same qpod as you, but it seems to jump all over the road at every bump and generally not hold the road incredibly well.. Is this normal for the Fun Tech's or is this something to look into? I thought it could possibly do with the tires being pumped up to high but I would really appreciate any advice,

 

Cheers, Alex 2

Hi alex, I was looking at your picture of your qpod where the roof is fitted and how it fits properly. Is there a secret to putting the roof on? As the Qpod i have bought comes with the half doors/roof, but when the roof is fitted it seems to slack a little. Am I doing something wrong when fitting it or is it completely normal? Cheers, Alex

After the adverse comments about the Bristol Micro Car rally, I feel a little guilty about putting the event on the site. The next event I put on was the National Micro Car rally. It might help if we have some contact before the event and know who is or isn’t going to be there.

The treasure hunt drive may seem a long drive for a Qpod but treasure hunts are not fast and manoeuvrable Qpods might be ideal. I am likely to have a spare seat if someone would like to join me in my 500.

My email is roger.liz@talktalk.net

Yes they have all been good progs so far, I have another friend who went to the Lego House build and is very disapointed she won't get to see it until Christmas.
