You could use the injection & manifold of a megane 1.6 energy ,that set up would give you 4 injectors with a rail , take it your 1.4 is on single point injection ? as they were allot quicker on the weber carb .

Hope it wasn't a mr clutch job ? but if you need a new cable best to stick with genuine Renault

This can be caused by gear box oil , do you know if it has ever been changed & not for cheap stuff its worth spending a bit more :)

The dci 80 has the bigger hubs & shafts ,has some one fitted a 65 hub & shaft at some point ?

There is still a resistor pack on the fan blower under the scuttle panel

Hi well the last one I had with that problem turned out to be the switch ., when looking at the switch off one of the small wires had broken ,Also worth checking for corrosion were the fog light wiring plugs in behind the pas front wheel arch liner , good luck

The first ebay add you refer to looks to be the correct radiator for a 80 bh dci the later one doesn't look correct for a 80 & looks like a universal 1.5dci 65 or 1.2 petrol radiator

On a clio Rs200 you will have to clear the crash data from the airbag ecu before it will start , this can be done with the Renault clip computer & can be made to start without new airbags fitted .

Believe what you like ,are you in the motor trade ? do you work on nothing but Renaults for the last 20 years ??? if the questions that your asking are on here then I think not . The only injectors that are different are the 100 bhp there again the experts on here will argue different no doubt .

Turbo & injectors are the same between 65 & 80

if your talking clio 3 on a 06 plate then most of the above is rubbish as it will be the 106 bhp engine with the better seimens injection . Oil changes seem to be this engines down fall as the bottom ends will bang out . If its got good service history & had proper oil in it should be ok

Optima batteries are good for this but they are not cheap

Would be a great project & good to drive . I would use the twingo wiring & put the complete running gear in your clio . You could probably add a turbo to your engine but allot of work & your engine is 8 valves short then you need to sort all the fueling ect sorted .

The 65 bh is to gutless for track & I would say the 80 bh is to high geared ,100 should be good on track as the gearing & power are allot better .

Best you tell Ram induction that & Renault then
