Can't believe it was so simple, once the jump leads were attached to my car the Clio fired up first time and actually sounds like it's running better with the new alternator according to my mom... if that's possible. Thanks Jamie And thanks again Tomo, even though the car started I replaced the...

Perfect, thanks bud! I need some carb cleaner for my own car anyway ;) Shame there's not a 'rep' button on here :)

Cheers Tomo, Is that the crank shaft position sensor? Only thing I can think it stands for is Top Dead Centre? I guess carb cleaner will do the trick?

Thanks guys, will pop round on the weekend and try again. I disconnected the battery before I left yesterday, so it will be off for a few days nevermind 20 mins. When attempting to start it I tried a few throttle positions and it made no difference what so ever. So either no fuel is getting...

This is actually for my moms cars, Clio II 1998 1.2 (1149cc) 8v A few months ago the car would sometime start no problem, and other times it splutter a bit and my mom says she had to rock the car backwards and forwards and it would then start... no idea... maybe a fuel issue? Anyway, I know...

S494 XOX Looks to be the D7F 8v engine

Also, is there an 8v 1.2 and 16v 1.2? I haven't got the paperwork on me to double check and I'm looking online for an alternator, and some ebay ads state 8v some state 16v. *edit - just looked online 8v = 1998 -2012, 16v 2001-2012. As it's 1998 it must be 8v.

Thanks Darren, at first I thought it could be a stupid question, but if Renault can get it wrong, I'm sure I can...

Hi all, Hopefully a quick question; I need to track down an alternator down for a MK2 1998 S Reg 1.2 (1149cc), it's just going to be a scrap yard jobby. Do the other sized engines use the same alternator, or do I need a 1.2 one specifically? If I need a 1.2 one, how similar looking are the...
