May I ask why you want 'Elf' stuff? Opieoils only sell the best s**t. Anything 5-40 will be more than qualified for a french piece. The main dealer will do Elf though or maybe somewhere like GSF but I dont think its easy to get hold of.

Not those super 4 abortions I hope!!

Plenum sensor I assume you mean MAP sensor? Not cheap from the dealer approx £80 I believe If you need one me PM me I'l do one very cheap :) But to be honest Its sounds more like a lambda Cheaper...

The engines vary quite a bit.

You can probably get away with a bit of spirit and a brass wire brush

Hmm do i really need to waste more money an stuff though... Tempting!

So have I, saw him on the other side of the dually he turned round and tried racing me LOL!!

Just being gay here and doing a bit or research... you can also use sticky tape. How effective this is I dont know..

QUite interested in this method any particular tips on how to do it properly

You will be fine to top up with plain water.

I'll time you, I bet you couldnt do it in 3! ;) more like 10!

if its a simlar setup to the 182 which it is other than the cable it'l be 4 bolts and unclip the cable new one on. Why are you changing? There probably be an electronic connection for the ICV (Educated guess)

I'm going to add some controvercy and say I like it. In all honesty I have seen a lot worse but its not great.

my 182 with those types of mods also removes the kick pulls better from low down.

Many new vehicles are now filled with OAT antifreeze (orange or red in colour) and will last up to 5 years. Always use a 50/50 mix for top ups (DO NOT top up OAT filled systems with normal green/blue antifreeze) http://www.afsredhill.co.uk/antifreeze.htm

OAT type antifreeze should be used... I used Xstream Red

Mine gets the cheapest 5-40 I can find. Lets be realistic are you likely to have the car til it exceeds 100000 (I doubt it) then it really doesnt matter. (To be honest it would be fine anyway) At the end of the day its a french piece not a Ferrari although i do contradict myself a little by...

If the sidewalls been pierced your boned anyway unless you know a dodgy guy that will do it for you.

Shampoo is shampoo lol. Itl be fine. I wouldnt use the wheel cleaner though!

The cost of this would not justify its effictiveness in my opinion.

I did think that afterward to be fair. but I kept my mouth shut as I wasnt 100%

Cool! Think Ill stick with CYC as I'v used them before and there service is excellent.

thats enought to last a lifetime, do we get discount with them?

Done a few searches not come up with much anyone got any suggestions? I'v had a look at the sticky which is useful but anyone got any particular recomendations??!!

Yeah its not difficult just a bit fiddly. Anyway the pictures I have should be a great help! You wouldnt have to pay matey lol. I actually picked up my engine from near your location in great yarmouth. (I dont know how close it is to you) Seems really foggy up there!

The inlet manifold? I have pictures I just need to compile it together which I keep meaning to do! If it continues to rain ill do it at lunch! Bear in mind the engine was out the car so it wont be so easy with it in the car but I can point exactly which bolts are needed to remove it etc..

Magnex I think!

The 182 wheels are very easy to scratch when rolling new tyres on. I had a mate do mine for me as I knew he wouldnt screw them up.

I remember when I was speaking to henk he claimed his remap in FBW models increases response by a noticable amount. Probably a better bet to be honest

They sound crap on idle when my old man drove it he also said it was missfiring on idle! (was fine lol)
