You see mouldy bread, does that mean you dont buy that bread anymore? Same sort of analogy could be said for anything. An engine that is pushed that hard all the time, will eventually run its course - Fact.
It doesnt mean that there products are in any way faulty at all.
For the sake of a new pump why not? Your replacing the belt with a new, tighter one. So this will put more strain IMO on the pump.
There only around £60 new i believe aswell.
Re: Project 172 ****
The maxogen was £200+ burning a hole in my pocket, sold it and bought the PH1,and IMO, it feels better. Especially with the £200 spare :)
Though it was about time i started a project thread, something i can keep updating when new things are done.
To bring people up to the present day
After the Punto GT died, i thought id go for something a little more, reliable maybe? Something that could handle. Looked at various things, Type...
Right pain getting the old ones off, thought the adjuster had welded itself to the beam!
Before-
After
Sorry the pics dont match, i got carried away, but you get the idea. Raised the height at the front aswell, was to low. Decided to go for handling rather than looks :)
What i would do is cut the elbow, so the airbox sits facing towards the headlight, and then just use a little of the CAF to point towards behind the headlight, and then maybe the rest fron the front grill, pointing up towards the headlight.
Resistors arrived. Just plugged either end of the resistor into the plug, as i didnt fancy cutting wires, just incase i need to put my rear belts etc back in. Taped them into place with strong duck tape.
No lights on dash :)
Done!
Thanks guys :)
