Does anyone know why mine isnt flaming?Just had it installed and its sparking nicely but no flame.The electrode was facing up the exhaust so it was shielding the spark from the exhaust flow i have turned it round now so it is now facing the flow cant be bothered to go out again do you think it will make any difference?

your possibly not driving quick enough.mine worked as soon as i switched it on.floor it in 2nd and as you let off the gas to change up wait a split second then into 3rd and you should have 6ft flames like me.
there great fun.hope that helps.

redeye

ps. theres a flamer kit on ebay going for £25.get in there quick.

get a decatted downpipe then youll be sorted.the cat will stop a lot of fuel getting through so you wont have any or much to burn.

Mine still flamed with the downpipe still in place allthough the flames were blueSince that it has been fully de-catted up & downpipes both changed, Now it is ''Great ***** of fire!!''Found it best once it has been running for about 10mins
