    Powerflow exhausts any good?

    I've got one, been on for about 4-5 years, they're ok for what they are (cheap). Doesn't sound really loud, boomy or chavvy. My tubing isnt rusting that i know of but now you've mentioned it im gonna check!

    broken section in loom

    cant help you with the fuse if you put your camera in macro mode (usually symbolised by a flower) it will focus properly when the object is close up. Just a heads up for next time mate.

    ? LPG Conversion on a 172 ?

    Same for me with churchill this year. I think the general consensus is they wont charge you any extra if you have the lpga certificate, but if you don't have one a lot of companies won't cover you at all. Obviously installing the kit yourself means you wont have the certificate..

    Which bit connects to what?

    You may have seen my other thread about me having problems with my engine not ticking over at all. I would like to make sure all my hoses are connected to the right place so i will post pictures here and if you could be so helpful as to tell me if they're right that'd be one thing off my mind...

    what oil should i use.

    I use silkolene pro race s 5w40 and if i can get it cheap motul 300v 5w40. But at the minimum you want fully synthetic but if you can stretch to it go ester synthetic like the 2 i just mentioned. for spark plugs go with the standard NGK platinums for the car. I've got some denso iridiums in at...

    ? LPG Conversion on a 172 ?

    My car is on LPG. it knocks your MPG by about 10-15% and i lost 5% power. If you do go for it make sure its a proper multi point injection kit by BRC or Prins. Though it looks like you want to do it on the cheap. I doubt a £200 kit would be any good - it's got to be a single point for that...

    Your Remap Gains

    Obviously gonna get loads more gains on a turbo diesel compared to an n/a petrol though, think he wanted to know about 1*2s only.

    Car will not idle, sometimes difficult to start.

    Yeah its the sirius 32. That's good then, where would you recommend that would have enough access to the ecu code? Would the place be better off putting the 172 code on and then tweaking it or just tweaking the scenic code?

    Car will not idle, sometimes difficult to start.

    Thanks for your reply danny, you reckon its all in the map then and that's why it will not idle at all? Would just a custom map on my (scenic) ecu be enough as I've been told there may be things in the 172 ecu that are different to my scenic one that cant be got at? obviously I dont want to get...

    Car will not idle, sometimes difficult to start.

    Petrol AFR is the lower one, not the higher one as described in my post earlier. Im red green colour blind and the lines are red & green so sorry about that! Just had another attempt at the pics. @atouba - That's what I thought but the dyno guy reckons there is something else fundamentally...

    Hello from Nottingham!

    Hi Guys, not a clio owner but i have a 172 engine in my scenic! Would be interested in coming to some local meets if there are any. having major troubles getting it going at the mo so if there are any renault gurus around i'd love to get one of you to fix it! Cheers

    Car will not idle, sometimes difficult to start.

    Above are the scans of the dyno run. As you can see the car also runs on LPG, the LPG is set up pretty well and is not the source of any of my problems as it behaves like that on petrol and LPG. Today I have bought a new TDC sensor/crankshaft position sensor and replaced it and it make no...
