    Default Japanese Translation for Instructions

    Hey Guys,

    Anyone able to translate some instructions from Japanese to English.

    It's all pretty straight forward looking at the parts, although I am sure there are some things that have to be done in a particular way, or the location of the OIl Temp Probe and the Oil Pressure Probe has to be a particular location etc for best results..

    Any assistance much appreciated...

    The pages are located at...

    Page 4 is basically just a parts list. It reads:

    1.Engine block attachment
    2.Oil filter attachment
    3.Centre Union (block)
    4.Centre Union Filter
    5.Side Union
    6. 1/8pt mekura? union [I think mekura means "metric"]
    7. M14 mekura? bolt
    8. O ring (attachment)
    9. O ring (centre union)
    10. O ring (side union)

    I suck at Kanji but I can read all the other stuff.

    Also below that the letters are for something like:

    A something about engine
    C is for GReddy warning oil temp sensor
    D is for another sensor say oil pressure perhaps but can be blocked off

    Otherwise it is easy to install, just make sure the centre hose goes to the centre on the remote housing and the side to the side.

    A little trick for you.. if you have windows imaging (fax / tiff file viewer that comes with Windows 2k) and you have the Japanese language packs installed you can use Adobe Acrobat to turn those files into TIF format and then open them in windows imaging and OCR them... then you can cut and paste the text into Babelfish or similar.
