this is my old 182 with a brand new pre cat sensor in for reference, seems to be reading a lot quicker and more accurately than yours

the core (without end tanks) is roughly 220 high 550 wide (y)

The one pictured is designed for a carb and wont be suitable at all. I've never seen a fuel filter on a uk 172 but adding one shouldn't be too hard, take the fittings and filter hanger off something in a scrap yard and make it fit

The seagulls at work made it look like the twingo had been at a bukkake party so I gave it a clean down. Looks OK but could do with a professional going over. I absolutely hate cleaning cars, so much effort. It always looks red in pics too, though it's more metallic burgundy? 🤷🏻‍♂️

Defo, not just for the top speed or cruising revs buy you can see what it's like for gearing 1st to 4th. Any shorter and it would be totally useless

It's has indicated in excess of 140kph 😉 on a private airfield. I let up before the car did, gets a little brown trouser when you click what you are doing and what you are in.

Found this awesome comparison video randomly on YouTube.... showing what an old pretty brisk Tuned Twingo GT goes like against one with a bigger engine in it...

Cheers, i enjoy the figuring out and fixing side of things (plus the building) gives me something to think about. Hopefully ill have no little issues left in a week or so making it feel like a near factory car/conversion. Like most of my parts from the build they are from a very good friend of...

WOW its like a new car again, hello Mr limiter 😂 I can confirm that the new pump has cured another issue i didnt really notice. I have lots of power and it revs right round now where I used to shift when the power felt like it was flattening out. Clipped it a few times this morning without...

Is the 200 tb a direct replacement? Could cause you more issues if not.

It looks like I may of had another fault but not really realised. Recently I've kind of thought the car, though still fast was a little flat. I put it down to the ambient temps being higher and just generally getting used to the power as you do. Yesterday whilst doing a pull it hesitated then...

I'll likely decide on the day tbh 👍🏻tough choice though, super cool Dauphine if the weather is good or pretty brisk Twingo if I want to blow off some steam.

love this van man, and the decals on the back lol well done (y)

Clip is Renault specific diagnostics. If its decent enough you should be able to see what everything is doing, should also gives proper fault codes and issues. Check things like the Throttle position and temps, not sure how it would feed back map data due to having the boost module though...

might be worth getting clip on there to see the live data?

From what I remember with mine you had to give it a few seconds for the lambdas to wake up on starting to smooth it out a little. Id quadruple check for air leaks. Have you had it mapped yet?

So final for this weekend I think. Abs sensors checked, I get a reading off the known good one but nothing at all from the dodgy one confirming I need a new sensor, so will get that ordered up 👍🏻 I also got hold of a dash switch, whipped from a laguna at the scrap yard. It's now wired in on my...

Make sure you have everything plugged in the correct place would stop this happening. The resistor pack and fan use the same plug and are next to each other 🤦‍♂️

I woke at around 6.30 this morning with a thought that I may have wired something backwards. If the resistor and fan were plugged in the wrong way round it would be easy to check with the wiring diagram and wirings colours labelled...... Yep id plugged the fan wiring to the resistor pack, and...

thats pikey even by my standards. why would you want a fan to be constantly running? id rather it just worked correctly and cut in and out when the ecu tells it too (y)

Turns out my fan wiring issue maybe a little deeper routed, another thread posted up for that as I could do with some input. My good neighbour lent me some real sweet diagnostic kit as i have a few little issue with the Twingo. An abs fault was my first to look into, after clearing all the...

Hi all, I have a funny electrical fault with my Twingo and could do with a wizard to direct me where to look for the issue. With diagnostic equipment if I activate the low speed rad fan it will run fine, if I request the high speed fan the fuse will pop (though they share the same fuse), the...

I was running the car up on the drive and noticed the rad fan wasn't cutting in... checked the dash and we were at 103 degrees. Quick check showed the resistor pack had failed again.... very strange. Fan is totally free to spin so hopefully just an age thing. From what I understand is it runs...

:D

you could of diagnosed which ones were with a £5 screwfix multimeter, that would of diagnosed your injectors easily. The ecu wont pull up a fault code for dodgy ones either, just lambda issues or misfires. Effectively the ecu sees its lean and overfuels the remaining ones to try and compensates...

Though I'm still not actually sure I want to sell it, it has no real use, the money would go nicely towards the Dope and doing some trick stuff to that. So here's an advert One off Renault Twingo GT with 2.0 Turbo engine swap. Currently on 54k miles and will climb slowly if I use it to get to...

Both are epic motors, be hard pressed to pic one on a nice day. I think the kangoo would get picked most mornings though.

WOW.

if i make it ill either be in a twingo or the dope (y) get along doesn't matter what you are in
