    Backfireing in Engine Bay ?

    Have you done any work on the car recently? To be honest the coils are crap so you never know but I would be looking at the leads first, maybe ones arching out. Try taping them up with some eleccy tape and try again.

    K&n apollo help

    Ewww what a horrible setup lol, Your never gunna get a decent feed there just look at all those restrictive bends, id either put a phase one airbox on or relocate the battery to the boot and put a straight feed on the K-N Ps you might make it a little better if you trim the samco bend down a bit.

    What can i do?

    I know its no fun but just leave it alone, you could f**k around with induction kits exhaust etc.. but why make a nice car gash with all that crap? The only thing performance wise considering is perhaps a free flowing filter (which does bugger all really anyway) n a Decat. I doubt they make...

    Have you got any rolling road printouts? Even though the above mods would smooth it out I don't think it would be quite that smooth

    Engine tapping, video inside.

    Dont worry about it, its understandable I was in the same situation with my old 182 it was burning a lot of oil which I thought was the rings as my mickey mouse compression tester was telling me it was the rings, Turned out to be the exhaust stem seals Doh! So I sourced a 2nd hand engine for...

    Engine tapping, video inside.

    Yeah they should have the equipment to do it. But they may have already done one themselves so ask them. if oil is breking into the combustion chamber its probably the stem seals. If its the rings then new engine time. Are you sure that its not leaking physically? Sorry to sound pedeantic but...

    Engine tapping, video inside.

    I see, I wasn't suggesting they were its just if its not physically loosing the oil through a leak the only other thing is it could be burning it. are they gunna see what they can do then and get back to you? To be honest it'l probably be okay once whatevers caused this is rectified and the...

    No oil? Yourself or the AA man didnt check, astonishing... Would have been the first thing to look at I would have thought So now you'v topped it up how does it sound? I'm suprised the low oil pressure light didn't come on. When did you last do an oil change? Make sure that the sump plug and...

    The oil question

    What your saying does bear some relavence but still 5/40w is the correct oil for this engine like or not bill. In all honesty you will be fine with a thinner one but at high temps id rather have the thicker one I was only keeping my car a year so wasnt to fussed what oil to use unless you...
