Title: IDA stacks getting loose Post by: Felix/DFL on January 14, 2010, 23:04:37 pm Hi,
I have a problem with the orig. IDA stacks (spanish IDA`s) As said the stacks (2-3 of them) are getting loose and can be turned by hand and rattle. I have bended both of the outer edges of the clamps down a bit which solved the problem. But only temporarly... They came loose again. It seems that the stacks are to deep into the gasser body so that the clamps don`t really press the stack "ring". Have you had simular problems and how did you solve them?

I have a Italian set of IDA's, I'll pull the stacks and take some measurements.

I have the same problem with my italian IDAs. I guess itīs caused after swapping the chokes which may be a littler shorter than stock ones. I often use a short (1cm) wire beneath the tabs to get the stacks tight which usually solves the problem.

I'D SUGGEST "A COMPRESSION CHECK",,, CAUSE "NO MATTER HOW WELL" ITS BALANCED A "LOW HOLE" WILL "RATTLE IT TO DEATH"!!! DOUG.... OR "AFTER MARKET RUNOUT" ON A "BAD COPY OF OUR PULLEY'S" !!!!
