it sounds like the connecting rod has straightened its out, normally starts by the handle having to be pulled very hard to open the door, if you take out the connecting rod, you will see it is not straight, gently increase the bend in the rod, effectivly making the rod shorter thus operating...
can get some for you if you wish, not too much money, next time my tool man is around, can pick some up for you, they are meant for locking wheel nuts with no key, but they have many uses ;)
where are you,because if you are local to us pop down as we have some special sockets with a left handed spiral thread that grip anything!
we will stick your car on the ramp and whiz it off in seconds ;)
call if ya want any help

just a quick Q
would any members fancy a battle at go-karting with the member from the RTOC, all for fun, just trying to get an idea if anyone would be up for it
it will cost about £30.00, and that is for about three hours worth?
it will be at cosmic karts in braintree on the 25 oct...
it will look loads better soon!
front mount will be on by tonight, new header tank coming from renault!
still got some tidying to do!
(K-TEC sticker on the tool chest is cos i like stickers and mr kirk is also a top guy!)
as chris says, drums and shoes are better because they have a larger contact area, they dont cope with heat as well as discs and pads though!
if you have drums, make sure you keep then adjusted up and the adjusters clean and working well!
as for fronts, 288 big discs kit and Pagid pads...
should go, fixings are pretty much the same. try looking if they list some for the van varient of the clio, as they should be beefier, also you might get stiffer or higher poundage torsion bars on the van too!
any one had any experiance with the roller type throttle bodies?
i am in two minds as to fit normal throttle bodies or roller type, i know what would look better *BLING*rollers*BLING*, but there is only a negligable power gain over conventional bodies, so is it worth it?
mate i just didnt get time to touch it! she just sat there stripped and begging for attention. (or was that me missus!)
think i will just up the CR a tad, clean up and smooth the throats. match ports, usual kind stuff! think 2.0 with cams and bodies will have enough power to be fun, if i want...
