GeePig Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 It certainly has a 'Rzeszow' province registration, although this is the first I have seen on Polish plates. Perhaps I need to get out more Trevor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the-blue-cloud Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 THERE ARE 3 identifying opportunities 1. a plate left or right the battery 2. a plate with the chassis number behind the right wheel 3. the nato stock umber left or right the battery a special code on the motor side plate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

austromunga Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 (edited) Hi all !!! took the ole girl out for a last run to a local militaria show before stripping the engine and changing the clutch!! but on the way home she developed a misfire... a check at the road side found rearmost plug had worked loose (loss of compression causing the misfire I thought... so tightened it up... and gave it a go BANG!!!! plug shot out of the head and hit the bonnet!! taking what was left of the head plug thread's (stripped thread's when I first got it!!) and shrapnel in the plug gave the game away to more serious damage (suspected thrown ring!!) so I spent a pleasant afternoon in the sun waiting for the recovery truck (luckily I had just taken out a new insurance policy with breakdown cover just a month ago!!) anyway this is the aftermath!!! so ..... anyone got any good spare two stroke engines (or parts to repair!!) head, pistons...the bore's seem unscored so would hopefully take a re-bore !!?? also any ideas on where to source the main crank/ big end bearings as these were the original reason for the imminent strip down!!! (I have an engineer friend with the press tools to strip the crank!!) please PM me thanks!! Edited March 12, 2015 by austromunga Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeePig Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 ! plug shot out of the head and hit the bonnet!! I see you have discovered the Munga's over-pressure warning device. While it is always sad to have one's motor break I am glad that you are going to attempt a repair - a difficult task that seems to put many other people off trevor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the-blue-cloud Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 I think no problem with a cylinder-head, new or second hand Piston I-III with compression-ring...which mm dia?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
austromunga Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 Thanks guys Trevor, yes Quite a task but I like a challenge!!! , Ullrich, PM sent also clutch pressure plate looking very tired, and I think ive had the full use of clutch release bearing!!! see pic showing its "teeth"!!!and the splines on the friction plate were seized to the first motion shaft (amazed that it was working at all!!) the plate has loads of meat left.... but the inner segment is parting company with the rest so replacement needed(see close up)!!

munga8 Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 Help needed please. I have an exhaust system from Matz Autoteile; I am having difficulty around the rear wishbones as there will not be enough room between the exhaust system and the wishbone when I add the weight of the body, what and I doing wrong? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the-blue-cloud Posted June 25, 2015 Share Posted June 25, 2015 It's just not original, replica ...... ... These problems have some owners who do not have recourse to the original parts. Unfortunately, the original exhaust system components are becoming increasingly rare and a complete system for the Munga consists of manifolds, 3 muffler pipes, brackets and hangers now costs around 1,200 € in Germany Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Willyslancs Posted June 25, 2015 Share Posted June 25, 2015 we had a NOS one for ours ,but sent it back as it had pin holes in it when we cleaned it , got a copy off a guy in the dkw club fitted ok Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A.Dady Posted July 16, 2015 Share Posted July 16, 2015 Hi All, I'm having some exhausts made for the 1000cc engine, as all you can seem to get are restricting 900cc ones. they will be made out of stainless steel by a very reputable company who have been making specialist exhausts for many years. As i'm neither a business nor rich I had to have 10 made to make them cheap enough to sell the remaining 8. If any one is intrested in one let me know Andrew Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
