Poor hot starts on a diesel will be down to low fuel pressure .
When the Hp pump get hot or expands with heat , thus causing low pressure .
Also injectors can cause this as when they also get hot they can been worn and pass excess amounts of fuel back to the return to tank .
Either way it’ll...
As you can see from my picture , it’s quite easy really .
But don’t forget I have the column removed also that’s not there .
Arch liner out , then the two nuts on the brake master cylinder.
Then all the nuts inside the car .
All I can see being an issue for the Oe throttle cable is that it...
Productive day on the servo removal .
Saw a post the other day regarding these being rusty due to brake fluid spillage , so I took a look at mine and wow it’s crusty and rusty lol.
So spent today giving it a good clean up .
Sprayed it with etch primer to begin with followed by hammerite ...
@Nafoff .
I contacted Firstline armed with all the info and I had a reply to the query .
Response was
Good morning Jason,
From the information I can get of the reg you quoted I think the cables you need are FKB2605 for the RH & FKB2606 for the LH.
The FKB2605 has an inner cable length...
Let’s hope it gets sorted once and for all [emoji1303] and then you can move on.
Great build by the way .
I will take time to have a read from the beginning [emoji1303]
No , as the cable are correct it adjusts up as it should do to spec .
I did read your post a saw you had excess play in adjuster due to to long a cable.
Glad I could be of some help .
I had many head aches working it out . Thankfully I’m a tight cnut and didn’t want to spend out to find I would have incorrect parts .
I ultimately removed them off the motor and took a gamble lol.
Also one thing for the Ph1 owners to bear in mind is that...
@Nafoff .
Have you seen my picture I did of the handbrake cables .
I have a Ph1 Clio and I purchased First Line and fitted straight in .
I know these can be an absolute ass to find the right ones .
I hope this helps .
Mines running stock engine apart from 438 cams with Jenvey ITB’s and made 195 from memory . Again goes well .
Maybe yours could benefit from some cams to bring it up a bit .
Not just those .
For the UCH to function properly , I’d be checking all those wires especially earths ect , as we all know s**t earths can cause this .
Others have said , press and hold the key fob switch while turning the ignition on .
But to be honest a solid red light is coded line fault from UCH to ECU comms .
So chip key is ok atm in theory
Double check all the connections in the bay , earth on and off clean them up .
I’d even go as far as remove the dash plug behind the washer pump and separate that for good measure .
Seems to me your pretty much on it .
You’ve done what an auto sparks will do .
If everything checks out , then it’s UCH swap with key and ecu from a donor car .
A lad on FB group recently had same issue and it was the UCH .
So he swapped out the bits and bingo it fired up .
Maybe you need...
