This list is for Mk1's only!
March 1991 (H reg) - Phase 1's introduced. 1.2, 1.4, and 1.8 litre "energy" petrol engines used, and 1.9 diesel. 1.2 RL models have 4 speed gearbox. RN has 5 speed, tints an sunroof. 1.4/1.8 RT has electric windows, remote locking, rev counter. The 1.8 is avalible...
^^^^ my exhaust dosnt use any rubbers like them....mine has half loop ones, with 2 holes in the end.....but then again, mins a diff car (only by engine tho....mounts should be the same!)
my xenons arnt as bright as my old halford ice blue halo's. much blue'er tho! they are 4000k ( a really nice blue/white same as real gas filled lamps). 8000k, thats near purple isnt it?!
you start your car, and look for smoke coming out of the exhuast, or get a compression tester (about £20 from halfords) and test that all pistons have a pressure within 20% of each other, also that the pressure is built up fast...
no, this could be being caused by the brake....you need to spin it very fast to hear a bearing thats just starting to go. it should make a ruff, clicky sound if its gone....if you dont have LSD, jack up 1 side, make sure its sucure, then start engone and put into gear 3, slip clutch and spin...
when you say 'there' am guessing you mean the gearbox? if so, this dosnt sound right....if you lost oil, your tripod boot must be split, or you took that whole bit apart?! the tripod joint wont just pop out....it will slide in/out but the boot should stop it coming all the way out. i take it you...
if it had a roll pin, you would know as you would have had to knock it out to get the old ds off. plue the connection that the roll pin secures is actually splined, so it wont slip anyway. this is just of the diff, on the sun wheel side (normally right side)
you best hope the person that buys it dosnt see this thread, or thire gonna be crying! lol.
i dont mind it myself, things i would change for sure:
sunvisor, and the colour...thats a BAD halftone!
