Finally found my wiring short and it was the supercharger clutch coil. Star wiring diddnt quite show F49 feeding the clutch coil as well as all the coil packs. So that solves my no start fuse blowing adventure.
Removing the clutch and coil turned in to quite the task today. Its apparent that this clutch was worked hard and is trashed. I plan to switch to a fixed pulley simply due to the cost. $300 for a pulley or $500+ to replace the pulley, clutch and magnet.
Vehicle was purchased with the intention of pulling the engine for a fun project yet to be determined. Maybe my old fintail.. we'll see..
Anyway, im looking to see what I can get as far as a replacement "input support" or whatever youd like to call it. The seal is gone and id really like to replace the needle bearing as well. Im just hoping maybe someone has come up with the correct parts already and can save me a great deal of time. Id like to get a good used one, or even just the whole front half of the charger with the pulley and everything.
Prob a used piece unless you can get from IHI , reach out to some company’s that service this Supercharger,not many out there , good luck in your search,I tried to find a gasket for the case with no luck .
Edit: the prices are in Australian dollars. As of today, 69 US cents = 1 Australian dollar. I've purchased from the company before; good service and fast response time for an overseas shipment.
