worked this out ^^^, dont know why i did it..... at the time i was wasnt thinking about anything other than gettin it running right! found the problem tonight tho... one of the pintle caps got damged when i removed the injectors to wash the head out a few weeks ago

was yours running fine up the revs yes? well checking out the wiring loom is my next option but its just that the f7p was running fine a few months ago!

hi, yes ive checked it, adjusted it! swaped it with another one!

the chip is for the f7p, i know this is wrong but ive never seen this kind o running problem due to a map being wrong but hey theres i first for everything! just wonder if anyone had done the same setup and had similar problems

im runing the 1.8 ecu with a superchips chip, i am going to get it remmaped once motd, but not going to the tuners till i am sure this problem isnt somthing else! i am well aware that it os over fueling as it did the same with the f7p engine (cant leave it running in the garage for more than 2...

removed all the covers and checked the timming agen, all is fine. i am a mechanic and have checked over just about everything, but just wondered if this was due to a mapping issue or...?

got my clio going agen on thursday nite, with the f7p head and f7r bottom end but i am having some teething problems. on light throttle it is going on to 3 cylinders, fine if your on anymore than half throttle or above 4000 rpm! i have changed just about every relevant thing for another out of...

which injectors would you advice for it so they arent being pushed, i know alot of people on here speak about sabb redtop one but i thought they would have been a bit savage for a n/a engine?

from your expeience russ, what kind of power do you think ill get out for this set up with a custom rolling road map using the standard ecu for now as a standalone isnt in my buget until the winter when i plan to tb it!

thanks guys, your opinions are valued! which kind of map would be best russ_16v, a rolling road made up map or a preset map from tuning companies? is the standard valver ecu remapable?

i am building a mk1 valver and unsure o what engine to put in it. from your experience which engine would be better a f7r with a fully worked 1.8 head, cams and a williams chip, or a standard 172 engine loom ecu and box. i know the f7r is less work but im looking for the best setup

its the old parts that put more strain on the rest, for example the worn spark plugs put alot more strain on leads, dizzy and most of all the coil. etc

thanks russ_16v

so are the gaps between the pick up points different in the flywheels?

hi there, i am new to clio sport and unsure if this is the right place to post this question... i have a valver, i am changing the standard bottom end for an f7r and keeping my fully worked 1.8 head but i am unsure which starter and flywheel to use. i have read through alot of fourms about it...
