KYMG REPORT 20TH MAY
The KYMG evening on 20th may was held at Mildren Automotive Phillips Street Thebarton
40 members attended and they were very fortunate to see experts at work.
Greg Mildren is well known in motoring circles and his operation at Thebarton was well worth the visit, the Dyno is state of the art and the demonstration was explained in the finest detail.
We were fortunate to see Bill Gilson’s V8 MGB set up in the dyno room as it had been tuned during the afternoon and the vehicle was still set up for us to see the results with the car running. Every aspect of the performance was there for us to see.
There was a problem with Bill’s car which he could not resolve, (a mid range miss) and so the visit to Mildrens, which was timed with our visit, thank you Bill.
The problem was quickly discovered with engine management system, the Car and Bill are now a happy couple again.
We were further enlightened about the latest technology in LPG automotive gas systems.
The vapour injection system with computer control was explained in detail and it would be the way to go if you were look at converting to LPG.
Some members indicated there desire to book their car for a dyno examination and it would be interesting to hear about the results,
Greg Mildren has been a keen racer, competing in a very fast rotary in past days and also drag racing, a very impressive “show vehicle” was also available for us to see as it is being prepared in the workshop.
The evening was rounded off with Greg demonstrating his skill as a Barista, preparing Coffee with his new Coffee Machine, and very nice it was too
This excellent evening was well attended, thank you for your support.
