Iv got a clicking noise from my engine seems to come from the head, its got slowly worse now it sounds kinda like an old diesel. my old man thinks its my cam hitting the valves. has anyone got any idears? i can get a sound clip of it, if need be? My engine is a 1.2 8v Mpi on mk2 phase 1 btw
Getting a clicking noise from the engine, now its got worse car sounds like a diesel. iv herd it b4 on other cars, they all tend to be really old. My old man thinks its my cams hitt the valves, and it needs ajustment. Anyone got any idears? i can get a video of it if need be?
I'll get it up to 90 then. but spending loads, budjet ant a problem but it ant really ant wort it for a 1.2 if i takes that much lets face it. I'll go with 90, find the parts i need for that then ill have to get something like a spitfire and start restoreing that :) no transverse engine or half...

shame about the sound but my exhaust and manifold will hopefully make up for that, ITG panel filter it is then, if they do one for my engine. god knows how its fitted tho iv got wires commin out of my air in take.

iv got a mk2 ph 1 1.2 and the gearbox has just f**ked, aprently its the selectors (parkers told me this) and they qwoted me 820 qwid to referb it, aprently thats what needs doin. anyone got any views on this?
the biggest factor with the 172 engine is everything needs changeing, are the parts from the 1.6 the same as the 1.2 ie drive shafts fuel pumps and so on?
unless its possible to do what i intend'ed to do in the first place, but instead of a 172 engine maby a 1.6 and tune that? swap the engine ecu and gearbox for standard 1.6 parts
